Last one from me for the moment after topping up the Rookie puzzles.
For one point identify the make and model (easy), year and the coachbuilder.

Yes, that's the car but I have an earlier year.
Locked for you for another guess.

Apologies for the confusion Bob, but it's not a D8 or a D6, my mistake.
The year is 1929 and the model is a Dx L (x is the missing letter).
The point is yours if you can complete the model type.
Locked for you.

I presume he was related to the Ottin coachbuilding firm as it's a relatively uncommon name.
