Is that from "The Prisoner"? If so, everything else on that show seems to be English. That's where I'd start...

Spent about 15 minutes looking through Bedford pics already... :P

Looks like it could be, but I never found an exact match...

That´s not a russian truck :lol: , that´s a Ford FK2500-4500 (1956 - 1961). Not the usual german version, but the UK-version.

Agreed! Lukas, I think you nailed it! Thanks!

DF, yeah, it's from the new "Prisoner". I was able to identify these cars easily (below) but the truck had me stumped.

million rep points to the first person who correctly ID's 'em all :lol: !

Lukas, the taxi and red convertible should be quite easy for you 8) !

Yep the truck is a British Ford. Used to watch those dumping things near my house.

Yes, the taxi is a Renault Dauphine

That´s not a british Ford, it´s a german Ford! The Ford FK-series (FK means "Ford Köln") was the last Ford-truck produced in Germany.

The Dauphine has the same exclusive 3 bolt pattern as the early Alpine. Well, seeing since they're both early Renaults that would be likely. :)
