Post Re: 2CV in movie
Yes, as Neil says, we helped some film students recreate a scene from this film yesterday, with my Dad's green and white D*lly.

The film was shot all around my (and Max's) hometown, Matlock, in Derbyshire, and the students contacted 2CVGB to see if they knew of anybody in the area with a green and white 2cv. The message was forwarded onto us, and we happily helped out. Apparently, the students are recreating several scenes from the film, and the one they needed the 2cv for was the one where the car breaks down at a petrol station.

We went to the location yesterday, in the pouring rain, and whilst my Dad and I were waiting for the students to arrive a guy in a Focus pulled up and asked what was happening. He'd just seen the 2cv in the filling station, and recognised it as the car and location from the film, so he realised it must be something to do with it.

We didn't have long to film, but I took a few pictures, some of which Neil's posted above. But here's a few more: -

They're not sure yet, but they might need to use our car again for more scenes.
