Problem plate to read properly. Best guess is EMV or EMY, both Middlesex. EMV went to War Department, EMY was Nov 1936 into 1937 but tailed off with a late trickle to 1950.

 Beadmore likely if EMY (also appearance is generally right).

 From more recent discoveries, 1938 Beardmore Paramount Ace Taxi MkVI by the bonnet's full length trim and one-piece windscreen without the horizontal split.

More likely to be a late 1939 registration (there was no post-war manufacture) and could be EMY 884, I think.
