dsl wrote Wheel detail in /vehicle_449492-Volvo-144-1974.html suggests 72+ 3500 S [P6b]. Probably NZ assembled.

electra225 wrote it seems another 1971+ Rover 3500, so it is probably what dsl assertes.

Gag Halfrunt wrote Why NZ assembled? None of the film was shot there.

dsl wrote NZ assembled several larger Leyland ranges (P6b, XJ6, Triumph 2000/2500) which they exported to Aus after 1971. Aus concentrated more on smaller/medium BMC designs (Mini, Marina, 1100, 1800 and local derivatives) though did develop the Leyland P76.

Gag Halfrunt wrote So were any NZ-assembled cars exported to Australia?
