Public appearances of the car in 2010 are listed on the GEN 11 official website, with a note that there will be no more as the car was sent to Los Angeles, USA, to be auctioned on. Actor Dick van Dyke, who drove the car in the film, said that 'the car was a little difficult to maneuver, with the turning radius of a battleship'. He toured round the country making public appearances with the car up until the end of 2010. This car was privately owned by Pierre Picton of Stratford-upon-Avon from the early 1970s until May 2011.
