Another from Randall & Hopkirk. A while back the car was (seemingly) just a random parked car. Now it features. A red one a week or two back.

Can it be TVR were into product placement?

This is from R&H too....



A couple of Vixens were also used in an episode of 'The Saint' called 'The World Beater', both wore the same reg' number....





The Mini in this shot is a Radford Cooper S....

It’s still around - taxed to 2020

As much as my Vixen was/ is a bit of a rubbish drive, I actually regret selling it.....

1MOK was the Barnet Motor Co Demonstrator and we Hired it out for that episode of The Saint, PHP was stock in Barnet and that was also hired out We hired out a lot of vehicles to the Studios for various TV Series and Movies it was Quiet a Good Side Line.

It’s a really good episode with lots of footage of the TVRs, it also features an early Jensen FF and a rather swish looking Rolls Royce Silver Cloud III in wedding car white.

Interesting picture. Whereabouts was that taken?

[TwinKam]

No offence intended, but the fence looks a bit 'TVR GLEN'

Looks very much like the water tower on the Stondon Rd between Lower Stondon and Meppershall in Beds

I had a mate who was a fence.. he ran off with my gf who had a mole... long time ago though..

Thinking back, I’m pretty sure she was from Dorking... which, contrary to popular belief, is not an obscure South Downs sexual practise going back to Druid times. Allegedly...

Peter would know better than me, I grew up in Croydon

Ah Croydon, Gateway to the south!

I grew up in Shirley, a few miles outside of Croydon.

We used to frequent the bars and pubs of Croydon. It was a pretty crappy place then and is even crappiet now!

Just remembered, i used to go out with a girl who ran the Salt and Pepper hamburger bar on the main road in Croydon when I was quite young. Good for a free cheeseburger and chips after a few pints on a Friday night......

I think we remember it differently Peter... I have many happy memories of Croydon in the sixties... the girl I fell in love with was in the year below me at Heath Clark Grammar school and she lived in Shirley.. her dad was a chief inspector...

It may have been the alcohol that effected your, my or both brains......

Indeed, Richard, I too have many happy memories of Croydon, but in the 70s.
Croham Hurst and Old Palace were the schools to wheelie past on your FS1E by then.
Peter's memories must be from the 50s...
