1969 Film - Some Like It Sexy - 3.8 E - Type 903 CXX

[neutral 3]

Just Stumbled upon this film purely by chance.
Thought I had seen most of the films that feature early Es, but this one is new on me!
I’ve only watched the intro trailer so far.
No trace on DVLA of 903 CXX, it may have been a false plate of course, but they obviously moved the plate from the bonnet to the air intake, in order to paint “ Lips “ on this unfortunate E.
Note also, the drivers “ Exit “ method from the car.....some Hottt chicks in this film, including the famous “ Maltese Twins “ .

At first glance, I thought it was an Uber early outside latch car, but whatever the two “ things “ are on the bonnet side, look in the wrong position ?

903 CXX was built in July 1961, and the 30th RHD roadster made (note the very early exterior bonnet catches), chassis 850030. May have been Henly's demonstrator. Later fully restored and now has ENO 30 plate. http://www.xkedata.com/cars/detail/?car=850030
(ENO 30 could be E no.30)

This is from IMCDb.org, my go to website for film related car trivia.

There are some great period photos of it on the linked xkedata.com website.

Edit to add: looks like that film also has a Lamborghini Miura in it.

I’ve seen EN0 30, daft plate though!
And yes, a very early lime green Muira, on Italian plates.
I’ve not looked on XKE data since last year, when I found my Late Dads last E.
