chris40 ◊ 2009-04-15 14:53	Early DeLuxe models had only the one instrument until 1962, certainly - I had an Austin. This, by the plastic brightwork round the rear window and the overriders - one of which is missing (woman driver?) - is an early DeLuxe. Note the rear wheels on the Škoda under heavy braking! -- Last edit: 2009-04-15 14:55:07
dsl ◊ 2012-02-04 18:44	1964 B plate - UAB 128 was early 58 so too early for a Mini. The over-rider handlebars have disappeared as well as one over-rider. I'll leave chris40's explanation open for discussion ....
Sunbar ◊ 2012-02-04 21:04	Thinking... interior shots possibly in different vehicle? A Minivan perhaps for easier filming.
dsl ◊ 2012-02-04 21:46	5th thumb looks like our Mini from inside another Mini as ^. But it now looks as if UAB xxxB series was not used, so no reason now to date as 64. Either UAB 128 was a reused cherished plate or faked for this footage. So reverting to 1962.
Sunbar ◊ 2012-02-05 13:40	Definitely 'UAB128' plate and not 1964 'B' plate, presumably faked for filming therefore. (First thumbnail has Morris Mini Minor speedometer by the clear needle with red tip; and others, as you say dsl, looks also to be filmed from inside another Mini.) -- Last edit: 2012-02-05 13:57:00
Andrew Hutchings ◊ 2022-10-23 19:21	I've just watched the episode of "The Saint" from which this picture was taken. Good old Talking Pictures TV! The other car in the scene is a Skoda Octavia, which is a fascinating car, and helped launch Skoda in the U.K. Many of these cars were used in 1960s I.T.C. TV series, helping to portray senes from fictional eastern European counties and for this reason they were inevitably red in colour! The cars were also amazingly cheap, weighing in at over £100 less than a Ford Cortina, the most popular car at the time.
