1909 Lion Peugeot Racing Voiturette

I photographed this car at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2007.
It's a 1909 Lion Peugeot Racing Voiturette but is not mentioned in the programme of the event and I don't remember it as being part of a display. It may have been there to publicise an upcoming classic car auction. The chassis of this car was apparently found in France around the year 2000 and it was restored to racing voiturette specifications as a replica of a car that had raced at Brooklands in 1909. It has a 2.7 litre single-cylinder De Dion engine with a four-valve cylinder head and its registration number is BS9527.
