The Sarah Jane Adventures Car Has Been In Bristol

The famous Figaro was at Bristol Comic Con

“13 Bannerman Road is where Sarah Jane Smith lives. And it’s home to things way beyond your imagination.”

The hit BBC TV series staring Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith, is one of the most loved spin-offs within the Doctor Who universe. It ran for five series between 2007 and 2011.

The first half of the fifth season was filmed before Elisabeth Sladen died. Three of the six stories were completed with stories Sky, The Curse of Clyde Langer and The Man Who Never Was airing in October 2011.

The final episode included a special tribute for the actor. In 2020, Russell T Davies – creator and showrunner – wrote a final epilogue webcast called Farewell, Sarah Jane, to give the character and TV series a proper goodbye.

At Bristol Comic Con this weekend, the famous 1991 Nissan Figaro Two-Door Targa Coupé was brought to the event by its current owner.

A lovely opportunity to see the car in real life. It’s in beautiful condition and much beloved by the Doctor Who fandom.
