Is it Sonny & Cher (& friends?) - looks like Sonny in the front seat and I've a photo somewhere of Cher in a union jack moke

(Obviously I'll be using these to open up a new front in my war of attrition against poor old 1071kev :lol: )

And they say playing with their phones is the main contributing factor to teenage boys high accident stats? apparently they are distracting.

It MUST be Dave Dee, Dozy etc etc as there's a photo of him in his previous life as a cop in Swindon, pulling DPU over for a traffic check......

Anyone out there remember when they were called Dave Dee and the Bostons?

I wonder what the story to the Moke is because it was also used for a press shoot for The Love Affair, complete with chauffeur ...
