The scene was night time and I have played with contrast and brightness to get the best pics I can.

The dialog says the car is a maroon lunix or loonix (that is what it sounds like) with registration LH 4875. I know you can't trust movie dialog but include it as it may help identify the thing.

All i can find with a similar name is a Loomis (1900-1904)made in the USA. (1900 was a single cylinder engine ..1901 a two cylinder & 1904 ..3 cylinder.!)..If(?)..it is this car...I'd go for 1904.!

I listened more closely to the dialog in the film and it could be either loonic or loonix. Assuming its more like loonic, its probably this car.

The site I found it on also has the following: L'Unic 12/24 fut produite de 1909 à 1910.

Since the character often spoke french in the movies, I think it is safe to call this car a 1909-1910 L'Unic (or Unic) 12/24.

Can anyone confirm?

The "u" in French is not pronounced "oo", so I can't confirm :D

Dang, I thought I may have had it

Oh well, back to the drawing board!

I do not speak french so don't know the sounds. I use an online translator to read the french comments. I am ever so slowly learning to read french but I have given up on speaking it. I am from the south in the US and everyone laughs when I try to speak any language including english.

The French "u" (IPA code [y], where the English "oo" is [u]) does not exist in English, I think; so it is difficult to explain how it should sound like :D
In this case if the guy that speaks French in the movie is not a native French speaker, maybe that his pronunciation is wrong, and then it would be Unic... who knows...

Thanks, I know I can't depend on movie dialog (just hoping for an I.D). The word could be anything - even a made up word. I do know that T Model Fords were built in England so maybe its just a plain old Ford.

Thanks, I understand. My wife speaks a little french and I when I saw your note I asked her to say "L'unic" in french. She did, WOW - next time I'll ask her before I make such a dummy of myself.

I listened to the dialog again with earphones and a different DVD player - the actor said "Maroon Unic". The car is actually a Unic circa 1910.

It is a french car but the dialog and script was english so the actor probably said the name as it would be said in english and not french.

It comes very close to this UNIC:

which was described as a UNIC C7 Roadster built in 1908.

I found another image, which proves my case:

Next to the T Series as in this image I found references to 'séries C' and 'séries P'. All were C7 with 12CV engines.
