Sandie ◊ 2022-03-05 20:37	The Bill used to use wagon (or van) versions for interior filming (more space for crew and cameras). I think this is just the vehicle they had for filming inside of the 2003 Astras hatches. (Sometimes you notice when the cars go past a shop window or similar the reflection is an estate).

Oh yes you mentioned you that with the BMW ARV, seem odd and very rare to use as an onscreen prop but this is only for scene.
