The V8 that appeared in the first series of 'LIFE ON MARS' belonged to RP6C Member Simon Hill at the time. We had literally days to sort and supply the car to the film company, as they were ready to start filming but had been let down at the last minute and turned to us for help. After a few phone calls Simon went to the rescue and the rest is as they say is history saved for posterity on video and DVD.
Here is a still from the show with one of the stars stood by the car.
And here are some of the pictures of the filming in action!
and now for the close up shots.
Thank you Simon for answering the club call when you needed.
