I'll bet that sign was a target for the modifiers.....
We used to have a fleet of small vans around these parts many years back belonging to a TV rental firm - County Radio.
Those vans suffered modified signage on frequent occasions.
CitroJim you are living up to that avatar line, or actually that would also apply to the boys that were adapting the van signs!
Those vans and the company must have been more widely known due to this activity.
During the long time the series was on our screens they used to feature real things on it.
When the radio was on at the station obviously music and chat from the DJs could be heard, but also the radio stations call names could be heard, LBC and Capital Radio where two that I heard quite a few times.
Therefore that Inter County might have been a real company name, it did have a phone number on it, but that was out of shot, when the car drove towards the camera, it was a long way away, and it didn't have a number on the back of the magnetic sign, when the car was closer to the camera.
Arguably, the Xant is a better looker...
How ignominious for a poor Xantia to have to wear plates originally from a Vauxhall of all things
