Hi, is that a Peugeot, perhaps type 143 from 1913?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #2 on:** March 02, 2008, 06:50:36 AM »

Not a Peugeot. Not entirely French, either.

Is it a Corre La Licorne ?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #4 on:** April 08, 2008, 12:32:08 PM »

It is not.

Circa 1912 Humber 12/20?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #6 on:** July 01, 2008, 05:26:22 AM »

Not a Humber. Remember not entirely French was an earlier reply/clue.

Napier?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #8 on:** July 01, 2008, 11:54:44 AM »

No sir.

Can't say I really understand that clue (I didn't even realise it was one), but how about a 1912 Le Zèbre A?

Ray B. · « **Reply #10 on:** July 02, 2008, 11:50:38 AM »

And what about a 1911 Berliet AK (I didn't take time to check what wasn't french in this one)

The clue was meant to let folks know that while this car is not all French (like a Peugeot, for instance), there some Frech in it.

Not a Le Zèbre .

Not entirely French... makes me think of Sunbeam-Darracq or Talbot-Darracq. But I couldn't find anything matching, though.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #14 on:** July 29, 2008, 03:53:11 AM »

No, neither of those...

Circa 1911 Sunbeam 16/20?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #17 on:** October 03, 2008, 05:16:23 AM »

No sir.

Allemano · « **Reply #18 on:** October 03, 2008, 05:45:43 AM »

Some Czech relation?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #19 on:** October 03, 2008, 06:08:53 AM »

Joao Gois · « **Reply #20 on:** November 24, 2008, 09:17:01 AM »

Maybe British car with French coachwork?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #21 on:** November 24, 2008, 11:25:01 AM »

Sorry, folks. My earlier clues appear to have been incorrect. This car is 100% French, apparently.

Joao Gois · « **Reply #22 on:** November 24, 2008, 12:29:02 PM »

Le Zébre?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #23 on:** November 24, 2008, 01:49:42 PM »

No sir.

Yesterday, by pure accident, I stumbled upon it: a 1914 Vinot (or Vinot-Deguingand) AM Tourer. I am anything but an expert of the era; here is what a respectable source says of the name of the manufacturer:
The double-barrelled name Vinot-Deguingand was only used early in the company’s history; once the cars became established they were always known simply as Vinots.
They introduced their first cars as early as 1901, so a 1914 model might fall into the ’established’ period I suppose?
