Muttley MK2 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 I remember seeing the filming of those opening titles in the early seventies, the escort was a relatively new car at the time and was for sale on the lot they used for the filming (Shepherds Bush). A weird thing about minder was that they also used a mk1 capri wearing the SLE 71R plate in a lot of the series. I thought it odd at the time as it is not possible to put a younger plate on an older car! Strange? or did only I notice? Let me know eh?
capriaddict Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 The Capri still exists and is owned by John Hill the chairman of Capri club international
surfingturnip Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 would that be a harrier with the x pack on in the background?
Trevmk3 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Posted December 17, 2007 its OSF heaven, there loads of them in the background, and the transit across the road, and the escort van (i think)
Mr Sam Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 oh to of been the age i am now back then
Scott_B Posted December 18, 2007 Report Posted December 18, 2007 Lovely! The x pack was supposed to be Terrys motor but just before filming started it was deemed "Too flash for a simple bloke like Terry", so he ended up with a capri. A bit of pub trivia for ya
