I think the shape of the window in the rear door might suggest it's a 14hp Lea Francis; the Alvis looks to have a squarer shape ... _________________ in the garage: 1938 Talbot Ten Airline

Yes, that Lea Francis looks more like it. The Alvis rear wing sticks out a bit more.

Hi
My first thought was a coach built cab on what would normally have been a "thrupenny bit" chassis.
The badge looks big enough to be Austin/Morris/Morris Commercial or as an alternative what about a Commer or Karrier _________________ Bristols should always come in pairs.

Straight 6
V8 V10 |

No Rick, it's not a Standard; they all had a pronounce 'hump' for the radiator filler:

It's not an Alvis 12/40, nor is it a Clyno or a Calthorpe ... I'll keep thinking ... _________________ in the garage: 1938 Talbot Ten Airline

I'm not convinced, but it could be a 1926 Lagonda 12/25; this is a 1925 model with Australian body and three-stud wheels, but five-stud wheels were fitted in 1926, and the bonnet louvres look correct for this id:

I reckon that's a big Renault, probably a Reinastella or maybe a Nervastalla, the registration dates from late 1931 early 1932. _________________ in the garage: 1938 Talbot Ten Airline
