If this car shoul prove to be a Bentley, she would be the 3 Ltr Modell, but, I am really not too sure, as I feel remembered for a Voisin having had the very same front appearence

..As this was a film based in GB ...is there really much chance of it being a Voisin.?

I'm sure it is a Voisin, the radiator grille although very similar to a Bentley has more of a point on the top at the front, the three vents on the bonnet side are a good clue also. I would imagine that there were some Voisins in the UK in the 1930s although it was and still is very rare.

...set in UK but filmed in US. Universal picture.

So a slightly miscast French car which re-appeared in The Invisible Man: /vehicle_232603-Voisin-C3.html as Sunbar writes also.

(New main pic)

tha278 wrote No doubt for me, this is a Avions-Voisin, C3 or C5 4 cyl/4 litre (e493af is right) but not a C2.
I am afraid it didn't survive... I am not so sure that the-old-dark-house car is a Voisin too.
Edit: but after looking again the-old-dark-house pics, I would say it is possible...
