I awarded the 30 puzzle points, but before moving this to solved, I will leave it here just a little while for the mystery bonus logo to be solved.... maybe.

Who can prove for two point which logo this is?

I suggest that keep this one as a individual Pro or Black Hole puzzle!

I've found an article about BBC prototype car

"The Benelli brothers—there were six; Giuseppe studied engineering in Switzerland—offered their first motorcycle in 1919, won numerous Italian racing championships in subsequent years, and fielded the 250cc-class winner at the 1939 Isle of Man. After wartime destruction of Benelli’s factory on the Adriatic coast, the company (which also produced shotguns at one time) still had not resumed new motorcycle production when the BBC car project took place.

And for his part, Luigi Castelbarco, of an ancient noble family, had raced Maseratis in the 1930s and helped to coordinate the BBC project. That included sourcing body construction to an outside coachbuilder, the Rosso brothers of Turin. The design target was a car 4.01 meters in length, or just over 13 feet.

Beretta’s website says the BBC’s shape prefigured that of the Fiat 1400, a somewhat larger car produced from 1950 to 1958. The BBC car was fully contemporary in the postwar styling vernacular with enclosed fenders, no running boards, and a bustle back. Ornamentation was minimal, with bright window trim and bumpers. The flush-mounted headlamps and windshield exemplified the period’s emphasis on aerodynamic design.

The toothy front grille let air flow to the transversely-mounted, overhead valve engine. With a single-barrel carburetor it produced 21 horsepower. A compact four-speed transmission was used, and without need of a radiator and with coil-over-shocks mounted to a front control arm, space was available to bring the fuel tank to a location just ahead of the firewall.

BBC boasted that the compact four-link rear suspension and lack of a transmission tunnel allowed for five-passenger seating. Folding the rear seatback forward gave the little car a large amount of cargo space.  Rack-and-pinion steering ensured plenty of agility on the twisting mountain roads throughout Italy."
