Original a London cabby, then found in a scrap yard up in Scotland then repurposed into a hearse by a funeral director down south. Not sure what state she was in when she was featured in Midsomer Murders RGE 548 plate check has first listed MOT on 2006-08-07 which may suggest when it was revived/repurposed.
