Volvo P1800

This car was one of the exhibits at the Footman James Classic Car Show Manchester at EventCity in September 2017.
It was said to be the car that was used in the TV series 'The Saint' where it was driven by the star of the series, Simon Templar, in real life the actor Roger Moore. Several of these cars were apparently used in the filming of the series, each of which displayed the registration number ST1 - the legal number of this particular one is 71 DXC. It's a 1962 Volvo P1800 with a 4-cylinder inline 1,778cc engine.
The underside of the boot lid has the signatures of various people connected with 'The Saint' and the Volvo P1800.
