There's not much information available on this one.....
Make and year plus what was particular about this car will earn you a point.

It certainly looks like a Rolls-Royce but it's not that.....

Not an Isotta and dare I say a much less distinguished marque......

The headlamps look a bit odd, and there's something "not quite right" looking about the car in general. Is it a modern replica of some sort?

You're very astute in your observations.....
Let me just say that it turned out to be a prototype of a car that was produced in limited numbers by a British company that was well known in relatively modern times.....

This is Robert Jankel's prototype Panther, a Rolls-Royce lookalike. Built in 1972.
