MG TD TF 1500 - Royalty in a TD

Just picked up this photo of Prince Charles in a TD (Daily Mail)
Ray TF 2884

Yea, there was also a video of this on TV news this morning. Notice who's driving! Not the "royalty".

At first I thought it was a RHD vehicle (from the photo), but from the TV news (lunchtime today here), its clear its LHD and the Prince is driving.

And it appears to be a MKII.

My wife noted Camila was doing the same as she does - gripping the handle on the dash board.

I thought I could see an outline of Andrex shocks on front. The stainless grill slats got me trying to see more detail. Squinting at an iPhone at my age is useless lol. Thanks for the correction.

I stand corrected. Prince is indeed driving. Morning news didn't show enough footage. Sorry highness!

It looks like the owner did hang MKII badges on the bonnet something I caught in the photo and also in the video. So I took a chance. Ugh. Hate it when that happens.
