Seven Dials (Mystery) on Netflix - car?
Discussion
Not sure if this is the right forum but I can't find anything with search.
Anyone know what the vintage tourer driven by the protagonist in the new Netflix Agatha Christie is? I think it's a Hispano Suiza in the book, but this looks like something British. The actresses small stature mean its a bit difficult to see the scale, looks a bit like a 2l Lagonda, or maybe an Alvis?

Yes, in the dialogue it s described as a Lagonda - doesn t mean it actually is one of course. In the book she drove a Hispano, I agree.
The steering wheel looks massive for her.
Captain Hastings drove a 2.0 Lagonda in the 1980s Poirot series incidentally, though that was set about a decade later

Hispano was a massive luxury car of the time.... MUCH more substantial than the car in the pic
same for a 20-30's Lagonda... would've been longer, lower and chunkier screen, with more of a prominent screen/scuttle
this is a similar age c3 cabriolet (which I think it is)

In which case.... I am miles wrong with my previous responses saying it's a Citroen!!
Though still not a Lagonda or Hispano as they both had enclosed front wheels
Possibly just something that reads as vintage on the camera.... like a Ford Model A with extensive mods (zooming in on that pic I think there is one single transverse spring running across the chassis (signature Ford Model T / Model A))
