And another one bites the dust ... by which I mean the car, not the muppets behind the wheel.

My investigative skills lead me to believe I could just about spot it was an 'R' reg on the rear tailgate (Daily Mail pics) :supafrisk:

The colour's a giveaway as well as the aerial. Rhodes Blue is a D8 only colour.
If the reg weren't visible, you could tell it's a late D8 (Q1 98 to Q2 99) from the chrome trim ("bluey bling").

Looks black in all the pictures I've seen, even one of the news stories says it's black. I'm still not sure about that badge on the boot, I guess it could be an early D9...

Bluddy hell, it took me ages to guess what the number plate actually says:
The enquiry is complete
