Door handles, indicator + rear-hinged doors = T97?
 

Tatra T97 so late 1930s? Maybe 1938? Not a usual Tatra colour AFAIK

Very well reasoned ! This indeed is a 1938 Tatra T97 Aerodynamic Sedan. The T97 series, basically a scaled down version of T87' was designed by one of Hans Ledwinka's sons, Erich,  the main external difference  being the lack of a sixth window on each side, the windshield is just a single flat pane of glass and no center-mounted headlight.

I am fairly sure I now know what it is - a 1936-39 Tatra T97. Sorry crossed posts

You are both “In the ballpark” 

I’ll post a bigger crop tomorrow. It’s not an industry-specific / commercial vehicle. Trying to track down production numbers atm.

I can tell you its registration number if that helps. It is C546BFB and was made (butchered?) by Glenfrome. Looks like it is brush painted in Dulux gloss. I believe most of their output went to Brunei and straight into storage. I believe it is currently for sale for £9000 (or nearest offer).
