| Our 1900 Argyll on display in the museum was also in Geneveve - but not a starring role. |

Surely it has to be Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - whatever that was?

I loved that film and Terry Thomas with that special
And the 'made for the movie' cars in the great race with Tony Curtis and Jack Lemon
Let the Great Leslie try that one on for size.

| You can't leave out the Mustang GT and Dodge Charger in Bullit. That was one heck of a car chase. |

Not actually in films but a very famous car nevertheless. Spare a thought, and perhaps a tear, for the guy who paid £160k for Jimmy Savile's Rolls Royce Corniche. ( I can't help chuckling though.  )
