It is the Duchene - I have it with a Ford Cosworth engine and dated 1972.
Point is yours though

It is a Lotus but not an XI.
It doesn't have a Connaught engine either.

I think Oswald meant #12 which is the Pandora.
Thanks for pointing that out D-Type.

#13 by the way was constructed a long way from Europe and although based on a Lotus had its own name.

Maybe the builder is Colucci...
The car, if I'm correct, raced the 1953 Tour Auto with Bonucci-Berger.

That's correct. It's the Colucci Renault 4CV.
Vincent Colucci is shown in the #1 puzzle with his hand on the wheel. It is pictured in Nice prior to the start of the 3rd. Tour Auto in 1953.

The body was probably inspired by a DB but there is no DB connection with this one.
