Would have set this as a [*][*][*][*] or more if this was a one-off show/movie, but at the end of the day this is a single episode in a long-running series so a [*][*][*] will suffice. (Also I like the 563 "goroawase" plate :D)

@dsl Can you double-check if this is a genuine Austin Cooper or some sort of rebadged witchcraft?

It's witchcraft. A lot of mostly easily changed details have been retro'd to match 60s Mk1 - grille (and bonnet/front panel to match rounded top), bootlid, badges, mirrors, 10" wheels, handlebar bumpers (although they don't quite look right - as if modern repros). But the doors are Mk3 or later, 86+ wing indicators, 76+ or later rear lights, larger rear window (came in with 68+ Mk2), tints, seriously pimped interior (although dash has been reverted to early Cooper). Either they've bodged a 90s Cooper (most likely), or a slight chance they've reshelled a 60s Cooper S into a BMHT replacement shell - possible, but leaves the question why they chose the modern version instead of the 60s version as BMHT offered all the permutations.
