    Nice bit of film. Reminds me of time spent with my brother John Craggs, and his colleagues, who worked out of Chelsea nick throughout the 70s. Old school, common sense policing.
    John preferred the Rovers to the Triumph 2500pi, as he said the Triumph was much more tail-happy on wet corners.

    The police car is "M" registered. This equates to being put on the road (for the first time) between August '73 and up to the end of July '74.
    Mr. Harris of Newlands Road (10 minutes) gives his DOB as 1932. If he's still around, he's 89 now.

    I found this film some time ago and it really takes me back. I used to drive Juliet 4 out of Chadwell Heath. After the closure of the old JH which is now, as correctly stated, the Eva Hart pub (Eva Hart being the last survivor of the Titanic disaster who lived in Chadwell Heath), it moved just round the corner to Wangey Road. Sadly, that station has now also closed. The RTC was in New North Road near Hainault underground station and the other locations were all around 'J' and a bit of K.G. (Dagenham). Brought back great memories of tearing round the ground with the two-tones on !

      @@sh-ig9fm Manufacturers today use parts which are shared between makes and models, just the same as it was during the era featured in this clip. The largest difference between then and now is that cars now are far more complex to manufacture and - to a lesser extent - service. You could carry a spare set of plugs, a condenser, leads, etc. in the boot and many people would be able to diagnose and fix basic problems. Remember the days of holiday makers trundling up the Fosse Way, pulling over every so often to check the fluids? The shift in interest in cars happened when they became more difficult to fix on the driveway.

      The adjusters were square and made of cheese so sharp became rounds or cones. You could have the handbrake perfectly set and choose to use it or never use it and after 2 weeks it would be out of adjustment. The Minis with front discs faired better. The drums all round were press and pray.

      @@Retro_Rich The square adjuster sits at the top of the back plate and adjusts the rear shoes.If it was so badly unadjusted then the footbake pedal would also have very long travel.In my experience the main prob. with hand brakes was that the cables left and right passed over a quadrant to go 90 degrees from for and aft to sideways.The quadrant was supposed to turn freely on steel pin thru the subframe but would quickly rust solid (freeze/seize).So the effort applied to the lever never made it into the handbrake actuating mechanisms which were also primitive steel on steel pivots and prone to seizing which would then cause the linings to bind and wear out.

      Back in the day, most police cars were black, blue or white, with blue light. Quite often some forces had "Police" on the sides, bonnet or rear. There didn't seem to be a standard through out the various constabularies. Met cars quite often had the two roof mounted spot lights. About this time the "jam sandwich" was coming on the scene. This was basically a broad, high-vis orange stripe down the side of the car. This eventually lead to the"battenburg " markings seen today, which are pretty standard across the country.

      The P6 Traffic (white) cars were the first Met cars to get the high-visibility side stripes, but not until the last of them were issued, about two years after this was filmed. I can remember seeing, and photographing just such a car in late 1977. Up to this time area (blue) cars did not have the word "Police" on them at all, just a central roof blue light and usually two flood lights either side of it. Traffic cars had a small "Police" plate mounted on the rear of the car, (not visible in the shot to which you refer) and that was it. Not like the very obvious markings of today. This had one great advantage, in that the vehicles looked enough like police cars when they had to, but were not so stark as to show out before offenders realised that the rozzers were upon them! This only applies to the Metropolitan Police in London. Other forces had their own, totally different liveries and standards, about which I have no knowledge.

    Is this real life or staged?
    If real how's the camera man able to film the action out of the car?

    I loved the old caution
    You are not obliged to say anything - unless you wish to do so
    However anything you do say will be taken down in writing and may be used/given in evidence (against you?)
    Nowadays
    You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned anything you later rely on in court
    Anything you do say may be given in evidence

    So the Mini had done nothing wrong but they pulled it over for a suspected dodgy handbrake? How can they tell that on the move?! And lo and behold it does have a dodgy handbrake. Setup much? And if it's not a setup it's discrimination to pull Minis in the hope of finding a dodgy handbrake.

    Fuck me the ROVER P6 3500 V8 . Got me off big superbikes. A black man showed me the way forward in the early 80s . "Glasford daily' you're a legend he calmly explained cars were Warm fast music and pussy in the next seat . Our police we're given SD1 2600 to catch me in a 3500 V8. Not a hope in hells chance. I remember being asked to pull over outside BRIXTON Police station at 4am by traffic division in a SD1 V8 Which literally had no working rear dampers. The guy with a white cap said his car was 0 to 100 mph in 11 seconds, and my car was 0 to 100 in 22 seconds. He said to me even YOU cannot make up those 11 seconds. After the stop was over we drove through Brixton towards upper tulse hill were we both stopped at a red light. The lights turned green and after 22 seconds no police car was visible to me. Literally the Policeman was utterly useless behind the wheel. LIke all the rest ive encountered over 30 years. Maybe with the exception of a Policeman Who showed me ABS at 120 mph and going around roundabouts the wrong way. Worst thing he could ever of done. I think he was called Williams. "I salute you ' literally Hundreds of policemen, of all ranks and experience in pursuits and in far superior cars, SHAT on.ELITE DRIVERS YEA RIGHT .Pull the other 1 fellas it has bells on.
