History
Wheelbase was amongst the first programmes in the United Kingdom to be shown in colour during BBC2's "colour launching period".[5]
Wheelbase's coverage of Formula One motor racing in the late 1960s was repeated during 2007 on United Kingdom satellite channel ESPN Classic. The programmes were transmitted largely as originally broadcast, but with occasional captions to put period commentary into context.
