Comparing it with the size of the Jaguar Coupé it stands next to, and looking at the size and positioning of the side mounted spare wheel, it is most likely a Twenty, or less likely, but still possible, a 20/25. Before anyone jumps in about the radiator shutters, 1) you can’t see them: 2) some very late Twenties had vertical shutters. Regrettably, I can offer no speculation upon the coachwork, or the year of build. -- Last edit: 2021-07-31 14:29:24
