The event took place 15-25 October 1969.
"Angled shot showing Rover stand" - actually its the Triumph stand. The two cars seen revolving are a Triumph 2.5PI and a Triumph TR6. Then we cut to the Rover stand, showing off a Rover P6 3500.
Next comes a cut-away example of a Reliant Scimitar.
The Mini seen is a Mini 1275GT.
"Unipower G-Y" should read Unipower GT.
"Shots of the new Daimler Benz C111 on Mercedes stand" - although the commentator describes the vehicle as such, it's actually a Mercedes-Benz C111.
Some very helpful detail. Thanks very much.
