Hell's teeth, that was quick! Did you do your kerb drill before you posted?

Correct. And the name of the driver?

I think I was a bit too quick in posting the new photo after the previous car had been identified as a Daimler Dart, but there then followed a number of exchanges so here goes again

As it's all gone quiet I'll throw in what I'm sure is a wrong answer just to get things going again.
Is it a Bristol, from the late sixties. I can't even think of a model except Beaufighter and it's not one of them.

Indeed very quiet and alas not a Bristol, but a British car from the early 60's!!

With a little help from Uncle G

The AC Greyhound
The AC Greyhound was released in 1959 and ran until 1963. A two door, 4 seater with an aluminium body. In total 83 units were produced, 3 of which were left hand drive and the rest right hand drive. Easily confused with some Aston Martin models.
