That bridge is about a twenty minute drive from where I live, it's at Theddingworth on the old Rugby - Market Harborough line, it's still there although overgrown a bit since '67 and still in use by the local farmer as the trackbed is good enough to drive a tractor on. The old station close by is also still intact as a private house, complete with level crossing gates and signalbox. When the filming was finished Stanley Baker threw a party in the local hostelry where the Rugby based train crew who worked the mail train in the film got well and truly lubricatedmk1 wrote:From "Robbery" 1967

There's a similar photo of Pattie Boyd's sister also picking up a Mini from Sprinzel's, Ursula Andress and the very similar car for Cathy McGowan of course!

Actually, thinking about it, not being PC, but for balance, should there be some pics for the “Fairer sex” ?Exminiman wrote:it had to be said.........Peter Laidler wrote:That's Isobel Black stroking her pussy across the bonnet of a mini.
Are there any ladies on the forum ?

I took this photo in Bangkok in 1986. Note the rear wiper and odd shaped corner bars. Wonder if it still exists..

A rare interior shot of an early works Cooper 997 in pre fresh air heater form. When the fresh air heater came in the map box in the centre was made smaller and the switches on the lower panel were moved to the dash panel below the open aperture.
