...And what's the title of that late sixties film with Ursula Andress driving a blue(?) ser III through lots of European mountain passes etc??

"xxxxxx Friday" ?

"Friday's xxxxxx" ?

p.s. I swear that "Butterfield Eight": was co-financed by Rootes! Almost every single camera shot of Liz Taylor "act..ing" has the red series one in it it:- even most of the interior scenes have the alpine visible through a convenient window. And you thought "product placement" started in the eighties?
