Info received by e-mail:

Quote I would suggest this is a delux 14HP late 1936 OR 1937 model.
Without a view of the rear of the car it is assumed an ordinary delux saloon as the Touring salloon was of the same visual appearance at this angle but 11 longer than the std ., salloon with a small boot and spare wheel mounted at the rear The drivers mirror for the driver is an added extra.probably in the 50's/60's. (the earlier ones were more oval.)
The side decoration on the vertical part of the closing bonnet is from a '/36, 37. It was a mazac chromed casting. The 37 decoration was a much lighter pressed stell strip constructonThe photo appears to show the whole of the vertical 'waterfall grille' is in a chromed bulkhead which would normally be painted silver as the rest of the car with the exception of the end bulbous part of the V ftute running back to the windscreen.This may be painted, but appears chromed. Its difficult on a silver car ! It has the sliding sunroof as well.

The registration doesn appear to exist on the Vauxhall Owners Club club register.

Une petite traduction, Antoine, s.t.p. Merci. ;)

Ha il faut traduire dans les deux sens maintenant ? :o

Il suggère que c'est une Delux 14hp modèle fin 1936 ou 1937
Sans une vue arrière on suppose que c'est une berline Delux car la berline Touring avait la même apparence sous cet angle mais 11 (? pouces ?) plus long que la berline standard, avec un petit coffre et une roue de secours à l'arrière. Le rétro est un extra, datant probablement des années 50/60.
La déco latérale sur la partie verticale du capot est d'un modèle fin 1936 ou 1937 [suivi de détails que je ne suis pas sûr de comprendre].
Puis un truc au sujet d'une grille qui devrait être peinte en argenté comme le reste de la voiture. Mais il y a quelques mots que je comprends pas (principalement parce que je comprends plus de vocabulaire US que UK, qui diffère fort pour les autos).
Il y a également un toit ouvrant.

L'immatriculation ne semble pas exister dans les registres du club des prioriétaires de Vauxhall.

Currently watching this film, I think this should be at least a 2 star, as it is driven by one of the characters.
