The reg must have been transferred as it was on a Volvo when I saw it. I think it is on an Audi now. From what I was told plates were used more than once. The original was issued in Dec 1903 till April 1935. It was re issued in April 1961 when my dad had it. I think it denotes it was from the Rochdale area at the time.
Will have to search my old family photos now a see if I can find it.

Must admit, I found it bloody funny, especially the Bond Chase scenes with Fred as jaws.
Some lovely metal on the program too.

I've recorded it but not watched it yet. 
But I've had a full bike licence since 1976, and had a Kawasaki Z650 in the early 80s - so sort of got half-way to a Z1300!

I have to say that Ive found this series of TG quite entertaining.
The last series was definitely lack lustre and I thought the programme was doomed but Im pleasantly suprised.

Its more of an entertainment program with cars rather than a car program that entertains - it must be as her ladyship watched it and said she enjoyed the show!!
