chris40 ◊ 2008-03-16 20:58	It looks like an Austin Seven Ruby, but as it’s dark it might just be a Pearl, like the one below – oddly enough I don’t know the English definition, but in French it’s a ‘coach découvrable’ or ‘décapotable’. Link to "images.google.co.uk"
chris40 ◊ 2008-03-16 23:14	I've lightened it and damn it, I'm still not sure: I think I'll settle for a Ruby.

Sunbar ◊ 2008-03-17 12:20	On mycarcheck.com its listed as JG6605, an Austin 2 Door Saloon. -- Last edit: 2008-03-17 12:21:02

Sunbar ◊ 2008-03-17 12:38	Details from the Austin 7 register.. JG6605 Chassis 230857 Registered 01 August 1935 Type ARQ Ruby Mk1 Maroon
G-MANN ◊ 2008-03-17 12:40	Wait, should it be listed as Austin Seven or Austin 7?
Sunbar ◊ 2008-03-17 12:59	I believe Austin adverts and brochures used both 'Seven' and '7' (similarly with other horsepower ratings 10,12 Ten Twelve etc.). My own preference is to use '7' to distinguish it from the BMC Mini Seven ('Se7en') models but it really is open to discussion I guess.
johnfromstaffs ◊ 2008-03-17 21:42	I think we can live with Austin Seven Ruby, as shown. The important thing is to say Ruby, and not just leave it at Austin Seven.
