The "On Screen Cars" exhibition is found at the Beaulieu National Motor
Museum. Despite not being a big exhibition it has some of the most
famous cars shown on screen.
The first one is the 1966 Ford Anglia 105 E 'Flying Car'. This Anglia
was used during the filming of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
It was stolen in 2005 but was later recovered after being dumped by the
thieves probably due to the media interest surrounding the car.
This famous car (below) is the 1981 'Back to the Future' De Lorean. It
is a faithful recreation of the car that starred in the Hollywood
blockbuster. Amid a glare of media interest, the first De Lorean cars
left the Northern Ireland factory in December 1980. Nevertheless, sales
in America were disappointingly low and the company collapsed.
The original Ford Mondeo from the 2006 James Bond film 'Casino Royale'.
The Ford Mondeo is the first car new Bond actor Daniel Craig drives in
the film. Because the car was required for filming early in 2006, more
than a year before it became commercially available. This model was
constructed and shipped to the Bahamas under a veil of secrecy, which
even 007 would find hard to penetrate. It is probably the most exclusive
Mondeo in the world as it was hand built at Ford Europe's Design Studio
in Cologne, Germany.
The 1971 Reliant Regal Supervan III is probably one of the most famous
three -wheel vehicles in Britain, featuring in the BBC sitcom Only Fools
and Horses.
