Alain -

Almost exactly the right information - It's a 1921 which I imagine is indistinguishable from the 1920.  Ranier Grimaldi was the owner, and it resides in a moderate sized museum housing his cars, on the harbor in Monaco.  Your turn.

Allow me to jump in with something quick, simple & hopefully not too difficult to solve.

All the usual information, if you please.

That is correct .........and the first very important piece of information on which to build the correct guess.

My guess is that the window stickers just visible at far side rear passenger's window indicate the owner is a member of the GRRC...

:lol:

Revised guess Rover 20 from slightly later say 1937. The long front side windows look very familiar as I had a Rover 16 from 1938. The windows are raised and lowered by a long lever moving through quite a short arc (quick action).

Wilson, not a '32 Humber nor a '37 Rover. This car is right in the middle - a 1935.

Perhaps a slightly larger crop will help.

Interesting path to the correct answer......starting with Cadillac, then Wolseley and finishing up with the correct, perfectly detailed solution.

You are right in all categories: model year, make and model - it is indeed a 1935 SS Cars SS1 Saloon. As everyone who follows this thread surely knows, William Lyons's Swallow Coachworks organization was renamed Jaguar cars after the war.

Sold new to a gentleman in Hertfordshire and discovered by a Swiss collector in 1993, who treated it to a complete and thorough restoration.

....and the full side view. I felt any other crop from another angle would immediately reveal what car this is.

Same body & lens.

Your turn, indeepthought.

I  apologize- on double checking the image, it was not taken with a Leica camera or lens. Again my sincere apologies.
