Another Scottish Renaut

Another Scottish Renaut
My heart skipped a beat when I saw the photograph of the Renault (definitely an ED - but Keith Canouse would be the man to pass final judgement!) which was used in Scotland. I've attached a photograph of a very similar car, which I think is also an ED and was used in Perthshire, Scotland, right up until it turned into a breakdown truck in the mid 1930s. I don't think it survived through the 2nd WW.
And here was me thinking I was the one and only Renault ED owner in Scotland!
