Apparently called the films called Witchcraft from 1964.
Car looks to be VMG 631 not listed on DVLA

Not on my Register. Probably gone to the scrapyard long ago.

The first time I saw a Low Light Series MM was in a film called "Skull Duggery" it was on the telly about early 70's I suppose. A Tourer. it was filmed in New Guinea and starred Michael Caine, CORRECTION : Burt Reynolds - not one of his best Roles I recall!
(I have been thinking it was Michael Caine for the past 25 odd years!)

The Morrie came out to meet a plane on a bush airfield.

I think it was at that point I was hooked!

How ever it was about 10 years later I actually saw one in real life!

See this link for the Skull Duggery movie details:

Theres another one in the Day the earth caught fire as well, which has somekind of 'prop' water condenser fitted to the roof with a pipe going into the bonnet. but I cant find a still of it at the moment.

John Ford used to hire out his lowlight, LGP 982 for film work and I once saw it in a film being swerved across the road, bouncing off the banks. It was painful to watch a car that I knew being driven like that.
