The classic car from the British Bafta-winning comedy film Genevieve has gone on display to mark the 70th anniversary of its release.
The 1904 Darracq named Genevieve was driven by young barrister Alan McKim and his wife Wendy, who were played by John Gregson and Dinah Sheridan, in the 1953 film.
The vehicle had been discovered among piles of junk at an East London estate shortly after World War Two and bought for £25.
It was completely restored before appearing in the film also starring Kenneth More and Kay Kendall.
The Darracq is being showcased at the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu, Hants.
