Thought I'd put the unidentified commercial stuff in this section - first up, this photo which was sent over by Les. Anyone recognise this great little machine? the only clue I have is that it was built by John Cross body builders from S.E London, so all suggestions welcome Smile

Looks a bit Harrods'ish, almost certainly electric; but I can't find it anywhere.

Hi
Could it be an electric vehicle?
Possibly designed as a city taxi.

I found this by the way:

Incidently there is a converted milk float used as a minibus connecting the Waterhead ferry terminal and Ambleside in the Lake District.

I wonder if the rear windows came from an Austin parts bin?

Maybe a bit small though.
