A guy on the AlfaBB owns it. He is in the UK. It was  on TV first a couple of years ago. Halfnelson is his user name. Owns a Montreal too, lucky bugger.

A commercial for Maltesers. This series of ads was so successful that it resulted in Mars having to build a brand new factory to cope with the demand.

Does the Aussie ad have Aussie accents dubbed?

An N-reg.
Does that make it a 1972 model? Can't be or it would be a ? 2000 Berlina, it must have been reregistered sometime.

Nice car!

N reg was August 74 to July 75 if my memory of growing up in the UK serves me correctly...

Yeah, you're right.

I knew S was 1977, cause that's the year Elvis died and the plate 'ELV 1 S' auctioned for a fortune. I counted back forgetting that there was no public O-reg and Q-reg. 1974 is right, so it has been re-registered.

Actually guys from memory this ad hit the airwaves back in 2003/4.  I recall this as my girlfriend at the time mentioned it to me and so when ever we went out for dinner, we always seemed to end up going for multiple laps of a roundabout  ;D
