This scene was filmed on an unopened section of the M25 (none of which existed in 1969): http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0094336/goofs |

Fake registration, almost certainly - they got the Letraset out again. Even Mk.I Escorts had year letters. |

1968+ |

That M25 sign kind of spoils the illusion, this film is set in 1969. |

I suppose it could be a personalised plate for someone with the initials LEC, though it's in the wrong style of lettering. |

Probably LEC 373J - issued Jan 71, so they blanked the suffix. No other matching combination issued during Escort Mk1 life. |
