sixcyl ◊ 2009-12-06 19:05	Ep.5.08 "The Hidden Tiger" Who did this transformation?
Sunbar ◊ 2010-03-21 12:40	LYP 792D - Morris was taxed until 1996 repainted yellow... The vehicle details for LYP 792D are: Date of Liability 01 10 1990 Date of First Registration 06 07 1966 Year of Manufacture Not Available Cylinder Capacity (cc) 998CC Vehicle Status Unlicensed Vehicle Colour YELLOW
Sunbar ◊ 2010-03-21 13:09	sixcyl wrote Who did this transformation? I would say this conversion was fairly easy and probably only involved fitting a timber framed load box over the rear chassis. The rear seats were not always fitted as standard (they were actually optional extras). The shorter front hood was also an option available from BMC-Austin/Morris. This level of 'conversion' could have been carried out by anybody, I believe, not necessarily a bodywork maker.
abctelevision ◊ 2010-10-30 12:43	Given that LYP 794D appeared a couple of years later in this episode: /vehicle_288686-Morris-Mini-Moke-1966.html, I would say that LYP 792D is also part of the BMC press fleet, but it is strange that it carries a London, rather than a Birmingham registration. Episode filmed January 1967. -- Last edit: 2010-10-30 12:44:15
Sunbar ◊ 2010-10-30 14:21	Also LYP 793D is still taxed and in use so yes, some fleet promotional or press vehicles that were later sold for private use. Details for LYP 793D are: Date of Liability 01 04 2011 Date of First Registration 06 07 1966 Year of Manufacture 1966 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 848CC Vehicle Colour GREEN

He was advised that it had done service as one of the ubiquitous taxis that featured in "The Prisoner". LYP 793D then underwent a restoration and at my Mother-in-Law's behest, was ironically also painted yellow like LYP 792D..! Good to find out that this little car also "starred" in an episode of The Avengers too. The car is still being driven today, I was out in it this afternoon. -- Last edit: 2018-08-11 18:35:46
niknak ◊ 2019-09-16 21:06	Hi there I appear to own LYP 794D which is now going to undergo restoration back to original, currently white (and orange) and has been sitting idle for the last 10 or 11 years
niknak ◊ 2019-09-16 21:12	Oh I also own the last Groundforce truck Mitsubishi Canter Y334FEV (later registered MRD 1 Y (MR DIY) not sure thats on the database or how I add it
