Alright then you car buffs here is a wee tester for you. Name, the make, model and year(5 years leeway on this) of this car. Its not mine and I will post another better picture in a while, but lets see what you can do with this picture for now.

OK, no idea yet? Hummmmmm, I have to confess that I had no idea either! I was surprised when to owner told me. Another picture! Please ignore the fellow in the kilt not paying attention.

I'd guess 1938, possibly a Packard although the front wings don't look right for that. Looks very similar to the Talbot my father had, but the emblem is different.

The hood ornament looks like 1933 Cadillac. After hunting a bit I think it is most like a 1938 British Salsmon. The window behind the back door is missing.

I thought that hood ornament was a Bentley?

I was going to guess a '30s Bentley

Well done 1938 is the date of manufacture. Yes, you have the country(UK) of origin. No you have not got the manufacturer, or model. Another picture to follow.

Here we go. Does this help?

Is it a 1938 Triumph Vitesse?

Hood ornament looks like a Rolls Royce. The body style might be listed as a limo or a sedan. Because it was "born" a few years before me I don't quite remember it.
