Not the most stimulating view but in case a previous owner is here - Westmorland registered Woodie GJM991G. Scan of an original October 1971 dated Kodakchrome slide. Card mount says 'Garden & view from Westgarth'.

I've just started watching a really good Italian crime series on dvd from 2008-2010 called 'Romanzo Criminale', it starts off in 1977 and one of the main characters tools around in a lovely Innocenti Cooper...
