Withnail: [approaching the pub] All right, this is the plan. We get in there and get wrecked, then we'll eat a pork pie, then we'll drop a couple of Surmontil-50's each. That means we'll miss out Monday but come up smiling Tuesday morning

I don't advise a haircut, man. All hairdressers are in the employment of the government. Hairs are your aerials. They pick up signals from the cosmos, and transmit them directly into the brain. This is the reason bald-headed men are uptight biggrin

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 .....

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.

[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.
