"G" plates were issued to new cars registered from August 1989 to July 1990.

Ergo, it's a '90. Clearly a gasser, because no diesel intakes cuts on the right front fender. UK car because it has the orange side marker light on the fender, which all UK cars had to have.

The open trunk reveals the warning triangle in place.

The car was probably stolen somewhere to be used in this caper.
Green? Hell, on my cheap-ass chinese TV it is silver.

In that case it is no longer identical to mine. Look elsewhere for a suspect.
