Nissan is celebrating the production of its one millionth Qashqui.
The model is among the UK's top 10 best-selling cars and is the highest volume car produced in Britain.
The vehicle was launched in 2007 and since then production of the car has used 31 million panels, 28 million press strikes, 2.25 million litres of paint, more than 4.6 billion spot welds and 81,000 km of sealant.
Dealer principal of Baileys Nissan in Canterbury Brian Smith said: "Since the Qashqui launched in 2007, we have seen massive sales of the vehicle.
"It is definitely one of the most popular Nissan models we have at the dealership.
"Producing one million in such a short space of time is a fantastic achievement and we're proud to be part of this success story."
