It appears in the story 'Ring Out your Dead' and in 'Murder on St O'Malley's Day' - I guess this pics are from the latter, since 'Ring Out Your Dead' also features Leyland-National KPA372P in Aldershot and District heritage livery, although it was formerly Alder Valley 221.

The vehicle details for E44 FFV are: Date of Liability 01 07 2009 Date of First Registration 18 08 1987 Year of Manufacture 1987 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 3860CC Vehicle Colour BLUE edit: After 1987 the Dodge name was dropped so make Renault only (Mk.2 - rectangular headlights). Thumbnails for episode 5.02 show round headlamps Dodge 50 Series Mk.1 and for the year 1986 only the 50 Series (last year for the Mk.1 - round headlamps as here) carried both 'Dodge' name and 'Renault' badging so branded 'Dodge-Renault'. This is the last of the 50 Series Mk.1 so Dodge-Renault (DVLA manufacurer not accurate in this case). -- Last edit: 2009-12-07 21:29:46
