Is it a Commer? First I thought of a Superpoise but the round bit at the top is wrong for that.

So how about a Q4?

That marvellous beast sold for £3k back in 2011. I wonder if you can drive it on a car license like the Bedford RL?

So this was off an E-type. I think an identical pic can be taken of a Mk1/Mk2/S-type/420 as well.... Very Happy

I have always wondered why Jaguar took the trouble to add a bit of bodywork between the doors. This adds an extra gap which means extra alignment trouble. Could it be as simple as, being in the design to production phase, already having made the door dies and then realising a longer interior was needed? Shocked
Even so, would it not have been better to invest in newer, longer doors? They were making them like this for 15 years!

All I can say is that Bill Lyons knew a thing or two about how a car should look.
