To get the characters about town the producers gave them a fully modified and very posh Radford Mini Cooper S with the number 'AA1000'. About ten years ago the car was found in a lock up garage in a bit of a state and restored by ace Mini bloke John Kelly, a short film about the car was included in the DVD release of the series a couple of years later with John being interviewed by Mark Gatiss" - Link to "43tv.proboards.com" Registration number: AA 1000 ✓ Taxed Tax due: 01 May 2017 ✓ MOT Expires: 01 June 2017 Vehicle make AUSTIN Date of first registration January 1990 Year of manufacture 1965 Cylinder capacity (cc) 1275 cc Fuel type PETROL Export marker No Vehicle status Tax not due Vehicle colour BROWN
