This isn't the 80's follow on from Life on Mars is it?

Yes your spot on Chris

"Ashes to Ashes " set in 1981.

Got back in late last night from Bermondsey, London

One day down , three more to go.

Time for dinner,

Im 'aving hoops...

It's being filmed in Bermondsey! ? I didn't realise it was that close. I live less then 10 minutes from there.

I take it then that the W reg plate was fake that was mounted on your car in one of the photos?

interesting that your tax runs out in december, but you only bought the car in october :p :wink: :lol:

Well not really fake as this is now my registered number plate (which I have kindly allowed the BBC to use for filming )

The origional script called for a Porsche... which was to meet an untimely end by a crash and explosion ... something that is thankfully not now happening

nice one mike looks like you had a good day, not sure about the Alegro, some things wern't so good in the eighties :lol: TT

Hey - cool - I've just bought an Allegro to replace my Morris!! Does this mean there's an Allegro in it too? Wazzaaa!

My fleet is getting more publicity than ever!!

(PS - My Allegro is also in Silver with two fat black side stripes - seems to be a recurrent theme of mine!!!)

And its also a W-plate...

There were a few V and W plate cars on set , its so funny to see these along side a D, it makes you realise how 'advanced' the car and styling was back then. The comments I had "is this a 1981 car???"

Excellent news, for my D and my Quattro - nice one.

Anorak alert - That's an Allegro 3 with those lights, high number plate, bumpers and wheel trims. In other words, 1979 onwards, therefore too new too new to be on an S-plate...

Yes it was very advanced, and so was the factory!

You jammy sod mike,

I Loved Life On Mars and cant wait for Ashes To Ashes.

Can you give any plot hints ??

That Audio Quattro looks fantastic. I've always wanted one of those
