"1927" they say in the programme, can't tell what it is though

The immediate reaction on seeing a twenties sporting automobile with a Weymann body of that shape is “Bentley”. I don’t think that this is, particularly the shape of the radiator grille surround does not match a 3-litre, or a 4.5.

A search through the books, and a bit of low cunning, eliminating Alvis for the same reasons as Bentley, leads me to suggest a Lagonda 14/60 or 16/65, made from 1926 to 1930.

The images are not terribly clear, and I have had to work on shapes and impressions more so than normal, so I am asking for your forgiveness if I am wrong.

It didn’t fly first time for some reason. Probably Wilbur Gunn is trying to tell me something, although he died 102 years ago!

Thanks for the total indifference. At least I’ve tried!

These cars are not my forte, but your theory looks good to me
