Apparently used in Elton John's "Nikita" video

Different plates, but that's hardly a major job, even Elton could do that. The father of a mate in the 1970s bought a RR Corniche Convertible in lemon and white, from Mr E John so he obviously likes that type of thing.

I remember back in the 90"s when i was working in Newcastle,the BBC brought a Sapphire Cosworth in for test from the Spender programme.
A couple of days later 2 more were booked in,these tuned out to be replica ones that were blown up in a later series.

I might not be the best,but i was always in the top one

I will tell you a little story that jimmy told me (i know him)
Two were stolen and one did get nicked,never to be seen again.
If anyone can remember these cars like others were easy to nick,the other one was stolen,but the guys that stole it found out that it belonged to Jimmy Nail who at this time was on holiday.
In a panic,and wanting to keep they kneecaps,the 2 guys had the car repaired and put it back in the same place without any one knowing.
It only came to Jimmy's attention that the vehicle had been nicked when the 2 thief's got caught nicking another car,and asked for previous offences to be taken into account.!!!

We do have criminals up here, but sometimes they are considerate lol
