No 12 is the Trojan Mastra six of about 1935

Yes, but I'm off to bed!
5 should be a Bédelia but doesn't look right.

Wild guess: is #6 - Twyford 10hp?

#5 looks kind of familiar to me. Is that an American cyclecar? The name "Greyhound" comes to mind, so I'll put that wild guess out there.

you are familiar with a 14\18hp cyclecar built in 1914 in Toledo, Ohio by Greyhound Cyclecar Company and designed by E.J. Cooke? How can it be?  ;D
You are absolutely right, well done!

It can be because I saw the pic in a great article, in a fine auto magazine of many years ago, about American cyclecars.

Shouldn't #12 be noted as "solved" in the master list since Allan L got that one?

I was kidding, of course you knew it...it was a very specific  'wild guess'!

#6 - This brand is more known for another car, quite odd...
#8 - British, 1920-1924, named after its town

I'm afraid I didn't get the clue. I've found it by browsing three of my books...,
