Sunbar  | An early RL with its original headlamp position unchanged from the S-type plus the original rectangular side-lights, as introduced mid-1952. | 2023-06-13 22:02 | ||
Commander 57  | Sixtiesswing, You are the first person to state this technically correct. Most regard the 1958/59 Continentals as Lincolns, probably because they so closely resembled the '58 Lincolns unlike the '56/'57 models. But the fact is, Ford kept a separate Continental Division right on through the 1959 model year. The cars did not bear the Lincoln name and advertising in '58 and '59 still presented the Continental as a separate make. |

ManuelB  | For me too, that's clearly a 1946+ Austin Eight, recognizable with its straight windshield and these heavy fenders without tin borders around. |

| sixtiesswing | No, it is either a 1959 or 1960 LINCOLN. It is definitely not a 1958 model as that had a one-year-only design with headlights separated in nacelles from the grille. This is either a '59 or '60. Lincoln and Continental were two separate divisions / makes at Ford through the 1959 model year. It is difficult to tell from this photo, but my GUESS is that it is a Lincoln coupe. The roofline does not look like it has the "Breezeway" forward canted C-pillar that a Continental Mark IV or V would have. Perhaps a Premier or Capri...or even just "Lincoln" as the 1960 base model had no name. |

| sixtiesswing | This is a very unique car to capture on film on a contemporary London street. That being said, Lendrum and Hartman had a good business as a GM importer in the UK since the 1930s, and of course a neighborhood like this in London has tons of money. It may be the London transport of a rich Arab, an exec with a US company, or perhaps a wealthy Englishman with a knack for something different. Great to see this car! | 2022-11-30 02:47 | ||
| sixtiesswing | The color is rather strong in this day and age, but that triple light yellow looks good, especially with the blackwall tires and basic hubcaps. The cars on these US shores invariably had whitewalls and wire wheel hubcaps. I always consider these the sunset of the true original Cadillac as I knew it, and I think the small number of British buyers held this perspective. Occasionally something like this will pop up in a then contemporary UK show or film, and though unsual, not exactly rare. | 2022-11-30 02:42 | ||

| Sunbar | edit: It looks to be a 1960-63 Paxit III (similar to the Pax IV) - low-mounted sidelights -- Last edit: 2022-05-25 17:26:37 |

| Honda Pete 81 | @TheHeartbreakkid15 You say lewis distroys the suspension but Martin Shaw was driving it immediately afterwards minus the antique table, straight after we see it come off. Same car,numberplate and everything, so it was the same car for all the scenes. |

| dsl | Later Mk2 bonnet with "rear-facing vent"; a small number of early Mk2 had the "front-facing vent" carried over from Mk1 and previous Genie (so overall it's far more common). | 2022-01-18 01:54 | ||
993cc  | Yes, chances are this is not a UK-reg lhd. | 2022-01-12 02:36 | ||
| dsl | If RHD = [938] from 1st link ^. | 2022-01-12 02:28 | ||
| 993cc | From ep. "Cry Wolf", shot March 1981. 1 of the 406 cars produced for homologation in 1981, carries UK reg (possibly ending in 521W or 527W? see thumb). In a London car park in 1981 it's probably one of the 75 RHD CGT's. Not 1 of the 60 GTS (all LHD) with fixed headlights, the GT had the standard 924 pop-ups as this pic shows ![[Image: 924cgt_cry_wolf_b.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23176/924cgt_cry_wolf_b.jpg) And a brighter but not necessarily better pic ![[Image: 924cgt_cry_wolf_c.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23176/924cgt_cry_wolf_c.jpg) edit: actually do not see thumb for the reg... but I've seen it in a hd version of this (which I cannot upload for now) http://www.924gt.com/index.html https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_924#924_Carrera_GT_Typ_937_(1981) http://www.mark-1.co.uk/Professionals/e07.htm -- Last edit: 2022-01-05 15:25:01 |

| dsl | So merge both entries into one?? | 2021-07-15 12:30 | ||
| Lowlander | I agree with the comments on /vehicle_102199-Unknown.html which is almost certainly the same vehicle. The body is a Weymann Fanfare and is probably this one: https://www.flickr.com/photos/steves-travels/24109966132 XUF140 = 1960 Leyland Tiger Cub PSUC1/2 with Weymann Fanfare body. |

| 130rapid | 1972 MY is possible, however last RHDs were built Nov 1971. | 2021-06-29 16:37 | ||
| dsl | ... which although unexpected reversal of usual update scenario seems to work, with 412 lights being thinner and leaving a gap above bumper![[Image: vw411variant.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/vw411variant.jpg) ![[Image: vw412variant.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/vw412variant.jpg) So agree 411 here. First Variant in UK was Sept 69 E, replaced by LE in Sept 70. |

| 993cc | Driven by the head of MI6, obviously needs at least 4 rear view mirrors  |
2021-04-12 00:01 | ||
| dsl | Still the only full car production ever in Wales, although the Aston Martin DBX is due to become the second, whenever production actually starts (unless it's started already??). Not sure which is the rarest Gilbern, but I'd like to find an Invader Estate one day ...... |

| 993cc | Was sure it was a Dutch Blue Alfa GT Junior then replayed the part..hang on bonnet, grille badge, indicator etc don't match. No idea what it was until I came here. Interesting car about 600 made says above link less than 400 of this version here. | 2021-03-28 00:16 | ||
| 993cc | Yes, I should have said "this" Giulietta if May 1 registration and mark-1 info is correct. | 2021-03-12 17:01 | ||
| dsl | UK launch for 1.6 [116.51] listed as Nov 78, followed by 1.8 [116.79] in Aug 79 and 2.0 in July 80. | 2021-03-12 01:20 | ||
| 993cc | Giulietta was just days off the showroom when this scene was filmed. http://www.mark-1.co.uk/Professionals/c07.htm |

| 993cc | Great attention to detail as this made in Ireland Hunter was the getaway car of an Irish hitman! Could have been coincidence though  |

| 993cc | 2020 Network Blu-rays also follow original filming order. |

| JCB | Definitely a ex GPO van , raised rear indicators , side doors and sign clips. https://www.britishtelephones.com/vehicles/lightvans/073.htm ![[Image: prof2148qn06585.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/3808/prof2148qn06585.jpg) ![[Image: pict0075a.1.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/3808/pict0075a.1.jpg) -- Last edit: 2021-02-13 08:07:07 |

| 993cc | As mentioned first appearance in 1.08 at about 17:40 mins. ![[Image: capri_ci5_a.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23176/capri_ci5_a.jpg) ![[Image: capri_ci5_b.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23176/capri_ci5_b.jpg) First time in series either main character is using any Capri. |

| dsl | RLW 44xR plates all come up as Citroen GS or Ford Cortinas/Granadas, apart from RLW 444R which has vanished without trace. | 2021-01-03 15:18 | ||
| 993cc | Blonde in Spitfire is trying to pass in front of truck. Truck drivers looking from up above: -Are you gonna let her in? -Yeah, wish she did the same to me |
2021-01-03 13:30 | ||
| 993cc | Strange that this plate indeed corresponds to a black 1.6 Capri since it's obvious they have covered a number between the 4 and the R... | 2021-01-03 13:22 | ||
| richard davies | This episode seems to be the root of notion that the Professionals production team liked to smash up old big Vauxhalls, which were getting cheap at the time. There's also a few early Mk3 Ford Cortinas used as villains cars & given the same treatment. |

| Honda Pete 81 | Now to believed to have been rebuilt as now taxd and MOT from june and sporting the 2.0 L engine | 2020-07-28 11:19 | ||
| Honda Pete 81 | Both on false plates HYM378K. Shame because if it had been kept in better condition it would have been a classic I hope whoever had this is ashamed of themself. |

| dsl | Probably TLH 794 again. | 2020-07-21 01:15 | ||
| dsl | ... and again on similar float here so a good chance it's really TLH 794. | 2020-07-21 01:13 | ||
