Great looking car wasn't it for the '69 Tour de France , one of my favourites, shame it ended up a crumpled wreck a few years after that photo was taken.
Spot the difference, Looks like they ran both 10s and 12s on the '69 TdF Auto

That Radford looks to be Sand over Sable in colour (gold over brown!) (my Radford's original colour!). Have you got the original photo Nidge? Looks to be Rod's 1970 Lambo, he also had a '71 aswell! He wasn't with Britt until '74 ish and she didn't have a Radford in this colour as far as I know, she still had her W&P Mk2 at this time. I'd guestimate this photo was taken around '71 and he was with model Dee Harrington at that time (from '68 to '74) so was the Mini hers. or even Rod's? He made a mint in the Summer of '71 when Maggie May was a big hit single so splashed out on this 36 room mansion in Ascot and another Lambo!

The other one (JLL 831K) was white when Rod bought it new Stu and was featured in Car magazine at the time, I've been chatting with the lucky chap who bought it from Amari's recently (it had been painted blue just before Amari got their mitts on it) and he's had it put back to the colour and spec Rod had it in.

I should have looked up older pictures as I only found pictures of the White/Blue S and the yellow SV as both have been through auctions in the last 5 years.
Yep - I thought he only had two until someone sent me the yellow SV pic. When he bought the SV he joked about having ''a ten grand car parked outside me six grand house!''
