e3tom ◊ 2013-11-07 14:38	100% ? ok: 1. this is the intermediate series (71-74) E3: side grills black, center grill chrome/silver. 1st series had all silver, last (74-77) all black. Also has 2 visible windscreen washers on the hood - which 1st series didn't have. 2. why 2800 ? any firm indication ? Could be a 2500, too. B.t.w. it appears that this was a film crew member's car since it can be seen several times throughout the movie, just parked in the vicinity of the set. And it has a center Paris license plate (75)
