Traffic 1903

 From Blair's Tumblr :

 Traffic congestion in Edwardian London. Filmed in 1903.

 Made over 100 years ago, this footage shows a number of scenes shot around central London, taking in locations such as Hyde Park Corner, Parliament Square and Charing Cross Station. We see crowds of people disembarking from a pleasure steamer at Victoria Embankment, pedestrians dodging horse-drawn carriages in Pall Mall and heavy traffic trotting down the Strand. (From BFI Film Archives.)

While the 4 minute clip is interesting in it's self: heavy, heavy traffic lots

of buses, pedestrians, all the advertising, some of the same names as today.

But through all the traffic at the end of the clip just one little auto comes sliding 

through the carriages and houses just one little car. 

Doing just a little research I came

up with a French built 1903 CGV Coupe Trois Quarts.

The one in the clip is a day driver, without headlights and the horn

is on the opposite side of the grill. The CGV Coupe was later imported to the US.
