Titanic car to go on show

The Titanic movie was once vehemently attacked by film critic Mark Kermode for appealing solely pandering to the emotions of teenage girls. It is highly doubtful whether the self-proclaimed ‘doctor of film’ will get so worked up about the interest garnered by the exhibition of the Titanic ‘Ghost’.

This magnificent vehicle was built for the Harland and Wolf Chairman Lord Pirrie 101 years ago. It has a charm and elegance which has drawn oohs and aahs from men and women of various ages and tastes.

It is bound to be the greatest attraction at the County Down Vintage Car Show, which is also set to feature the exhibition of a Derby Bentley and grand old Morris Minor.

One of the event organisers said, “This car has a unique link to a special time and place in our history and we are thrilled to be able to bring it back to Northern Ireland in this year when so much attention will be focussed on the Titanic.

“I'm sure visitors to the show will find themselves transported back in time by the experience. You can just imagine Lord Pirrie driving to the shipyard in this Rolls Royce to check on the progress of the great ship.”

It is only hoped that the present owners of this valuable collector’s item have guarded against fate by investing in comprehensive car insurance.
