  1. Hi Colin. Yep, I think they did run it into the ground hence the replacement car CXE in the later series. It was 'restored' by persons unknown to me & sold at H&H auctions in Buxton, then hidden away in Harrogate for a decade. Melted wiring near the petrol tank was not a good sign. It still needs work but at least it's on the road! Have been invited to take it up to Holmfirth next year for the 50th anniversary of LOTSW  where it will be on display for a couple of days (warts n all) outside Nora Battys house.

    It doesn't help with WRH 132J appearing with both 1200 & 13/60 bonnets

    After Corgi released their LotSW 13/60 Convertible with the  Edie Pegden figure I had a 'cunning plan' to make a 1200 version by sticking together a front end from a Corgi Vanguards 1200 saloon with the rear end from a Corgi Vanguards 13/60 CV. I've still got the parts cars - I was put off by not really being able to pin down the 'correct' registration number for the 1200!

     

    The registration of the 1200 model was GJN107D. I own the ORIGINAL car used in the programme WRH132J. It can be identified on screen by the wrong boot hinges & lack of rear wing crossed flags.
