| Post subject: | Italian Job No. plates..... |
Three famous number plates from the Mini Coopers used in cult film The Italian Job have fetched ?19,800 at auction. The getaway cars were the stars of the 1969 film featuring Michael Caine. Each number plate related to something from the movie - GPF 146G came from the Grand Prix flag, HMP 729G was Caine's prison number and LGW 809G was the gang's flight number. They were removed from the cars shortly after filming and have been in the hands of private collectors. The plates were bought as one lot by a private telephone buyer during the sale at Cheffins auction house in Cambridge today. A Cheffins spokesman said: "This is a fantastic result." The Mini Coopers getaway scene on the streets of Turin is often voted the best movie car chase of all time. The film was remade in 2003 starring Mark Wahlberg and Charlize Theron |
