What is it? (12) UPDATE: Lagonda M 45 T8.
We had a couple of close finishers on this one. The right make was of course Lagonda. The year, circa 1934. The right type was M45 - 4,5 L. The body either a T 7 or T 8. Only one competitor went into the differences between a T 7 and T 8 (2 front doors = T8, 1 front n/s door + 1 o/s rear door = T7). This one has an off side front door, so it should be a T8. So far we received no reply from the Lagonda club. Which means the T-shirt is going ( a second one ) to Mike Tebbett from the UK. Congratulations! Eduard Hattuma corrected us that the car in the background is no Ford but a 1937 Studebaker. Thank you Eduard!

Earlier Text: Spotted probably in the late forties or early fifties. A Ford(?) in the background. A girl cycling by completely uninterested. Slightly easier than last weeks question is this European sporty tourer(we rubbed of the radiator badge not to make life too easy). At the same time you have to be accurate and precise in your description, as the best description (in terms of facts) will be the winner of the infamous PreWarCar T-shirt.
