Jim Bergerac and Inspector Morse respectively.

 

Ok, how about KAR 120C, VNO 857, A467 NRN, NHK 295M, WLB 991 and 539724.

 

Couple of real awkward ones there.... biggrin.gif

 

KAR120C id Number 6's Lotus Seven

NHK 295M is Jack Regan's squad car but he had a driver, several in fact.

SNV 696M ? (not a cop !!)

 

Arthur Daley. One of his earlier Jags, oddly one of his later ones (E reg I think) appeared in two shows on the same night, it being driven by Arthur in Minder and later that night by Inspector Dalgleish in one of the PD James dramas!

 

Also the same Birmingham registered Rovers have appeared in Taggart, Touch of Frost and Midsomer Murders.

 

I think that there is a pool of cars/vans used by production companies, the early series of The Bill had the CID's undercover unmarked green Transit van can't find the reg at the moment) which also turned up in the shortlived Rockliffe's Babies! Also Arthur Daley's pale blue sliding drivers door Mk 2 Transit Van turned up in several different series in the early to mid 1980's.

S.A.C. Martin - I can confirm that NHK 295M is currently being restored by a member of The Seeney forum, its been his for about eighteen years now. Still a long way to go yet as its a truly painstaking restoration this one.

How about this one.... EMK 760J....

So who drove 505 EXY?

The owner was famously prosecuted and convicted(several times) and it featured in a documentary T.V.programme about vehicle licence plates?

Not a fictional person but very famous at the time.

 

Cynthia Payne....?
