Similar number to Peter Mallish's Radford 'JLD 2D' ;) .

Beatle George has just arrived at Apple Corp HQ in Savile Row in his Merc in 1969, looks like an Innocenti Mini parked up behind it...

Princedale Road in Ladbroke Grove in 1970, a glimpse of what looks like a Minivan with side window conversion, but check out the Gordon Keeble GT 'DLK 83C', what a car...
