Interceptor SMB ***H spotted in Chipping Norton
A dark blue Interceptor spotted this morning in Chipping Norton at 09:45 this morning.
Anyone know whose it is?
It may have been being driven by a workshop mechanic as the drivers seat appeared to have had a disposable plastic cover.
I was in my Morris Minor

Hi Martin
I didn’t know you had a Morris Minor I have a 68 Saloon mind if I ask what yours is?
Cheers
Mark

Today, several weeks later, I just met the chap in Witney!
However, I didn't make the connection to this car that I saw in Chipping Norton until now...

I cannot believe that over 580 people looked at a perfectly normal post about seeing a damn car in Chipping Norton. Then we have Martin's Noddy car. This belongs on "for Idiots only".Kenny38

Just seen this post (must visit the forum more often), a bit late in the day to say the least ! Yes, SMB 275 is my early MkII Interceptor and has been burbling around CN, and North Wales occasionally, in my ownership for 34 years. Recently rejuvenated very satisfactorily with a full body, brake, suspension, trim and some mechanical restoration.
