This was also in the first few episodes of The Professionals as Cowley's car but with a slightly different numberplate

In some pics the wheels are the alloys but some are the wire alloys but it is the same car

I think this (& some other regular cars) had a "stand in" for 2nd unit shots & in case of breakdowns.

This Rover was also used in an episode of Return of the Saint : "Yesterday's Hero". The funny thing is it's driven by Ian Hendry (who was in the very first series of the Avengers).

This particular car also appears in the 1977 public information film ‘Night Call’; can be viewed on the BFI’s website.

https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/watch-night-call-1977-online . I watched it - a reasonable selection of 1970s stuff to plough through - most interesting were probably a police Jag XJ S2 and blink-and-miss-it sightings in motorway spray of silver Escort 1300E and "Citron" yellow Marina TC Jubilee edition. Probably deserves being posted, but I can't get decent captures from BFi site postings or find another source.

Edit - now posted. MOC 229P here.
