Vanguard?

Smaller than Vanguard. It's a Eight or a Ten... Btw: there is also a Citroën 2CV (third car)!

It's a Standard Ten, the Eight didn't have the trim on the grille.

I wonderd if this could be an Eight with aftermarket grille.... The Ten had 'only' the upper half of the chrome grille, its grille was a bit wider and the indicators were placed higher. :think:

I daresay that dealers may have offered some sort of aftermarket grille to spruce up the very plain front end on the eight.

That grille looks odd compared with the contemporary advertising I've just been looking at. I'm happy to agree that it's an 8.

It looks like a 1953-1955 model.
