This Jaguar appeared in an episode of Steptoe and Son - series 5/episode 5, entitled 'The Colour Problem.' Albert wants a colour TV. Harold buys the Jag but feels obliged to sell it back to the dealer and buy his dad a colour TV instead after Albert falls very ill (although only pretending to be ill, naturally.) Very funny episode.

This is the link to the episode on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch .
It was broadcast on 3 April 1970. According to the episode synopsis, Harold paid £315 for the car; those were the days!
