They (usually?) had her personal 1420 H plate, and one SE6a in a similar dark blue (although not 2-tone). I think this is SE6b, which was first version with official 2-tone option and chrome trim along lower body sides; it also had a simpler all black grille without chrome strip along top, which doesn't seem present here. Minilites are unusual - most had Wolfrace or similar chrome mags. Doesn't match a Middlebridge which had body colour bumpers and mirrors, and tints.
