 Compare with /vehicle.php?id=98532#Comment938957 - looks same location, probably not UK.

 By the vegetation with pine and birch trees, plus the fact, that there a Beetle crashes into the Allegro /vehicle.php?id=98532#Comment938957 and by the other fact, that in the far left you can spot an Audi 100 Coupé S, it's most probably the VW-test range in the village of Ehra-Lessien, west of Wolfsburg.

 So were VW secretly destroying all the Allegros they could find so that people had to buy K70s instead?

 Naah, this would have been to elaborate. To find the few Allegros on the German market. Though it was one of the very very few British cars, which were sold here, it was too rare and unknown.

 I shot an ad at the test track at TRRL in Bracknell, UK once. It looks like this, lined with fir trees. And it was littered with red and yellow Sierra and Cavalier bodyshells: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/344

 Ah, yes, dudley is right. The bus in the background above had irritated me, but I've ignored that at my last posting.

So Volkswagen is not the only company, which has a test range in sandy heath-areas :think:

Lots of other footage in this film is from the same road lab. Note the TRRL markings on the cars in some of the other clips.
