Just searched for a screen shot and found this:
and Bonhams recnetly sold the aston for £241k..
"....Until recently the car belonged to film director Bruce Robinson, its owner for 25-or-so years, best known for his cult comedy classic, Withnail & I. The latter starred Richard E Grant and Paul McGann as the eponymous duo and also featured the Aston, which appears in the background in a street scene...."
Sorry for the thread creep
Freston Road just off Bramley Road Shephards Bush, London . There was an Aston Martin specialist in Bard Road which is just off to the left of the Jag which accounts for the DB4 DH parked up in a rather insalubrious spot.That area was used for filming everything from Steptoe and Son to The Sweeney .....and Bonhams recnetly sold the aston for £241k..

I'll have to have a re-watch as I hadn't noticed that Aston before. Coincidentally if you Google streetview Freston Road there's a MkIII Daimler Sovereign parked quite close to where that screenshot's shown.

Imagine my surprise at recently seeing Danny & Presumin Ed's prototype has finally made it to production.

[quote=Withnails jag ]Hi to all piston heads , I can clear up some of the mystery about this as I bought it , from Steven hill , ( Hill house hire) it was advertised in practical classics , I restored it to a useable car as it had a broken steering wheel and a headlight was missing , although it had a long mot , at the time I had not seen withnail&l .at the time an mr hill told me it had been used in filming , but was vague . I was parked in a supermarket car park and someone put a note on the screen asking if I would like to well the number plate , which I did £450 , he had a jaguar xj6 at the time and owned a lingerie co in Rayleigh at the time ,I only have 1 pic of her after the new no was issued , I took it to a car show in genk Belgium ,and sold it on the way home to a friend in France , all I have left is the plastic pipe and red plastic valve which was in the back ,Used in the film I suspect . ,it drove very well and had twin S U s fitted , not solex , happy days ??[/qu
So you bought the registration 405 SBH?! Did you put this reg on the MK 2 jag or did you keep it ?
Does your friend in France still have the withnail jag?
Thanks.
