Apologies for the poor image but it's the only one I have.
For one point name the make, model and the coachbuilder.

In a way, yes.....
The car is the UK version of an American saloon.
Body is British though.

Not Studebaker......
Don't forget that this is the UK version of an American car (therefore under a different marque) with a British body.

Apologies Ray, missed your reply on this one.
As an extra hint, the make is a double-barelled name.

Not that would be an entirely British marque.......
The first name is British and the second the marque as known in the USA.

Lammas-Graham is correct.
I have only a hp rating as the model and the coachbuilder is not Carlton.

The later saloon bodies were made by Bertelli.
The bore of 82.5 mm and 6 cylinders would give a RAC rating of 25 hp.

Bertelli is correct.
The HP rating I have is larger than 25.....

Well they probably rounded up, so it would be 26 hp, just like the contemporary Graham with the same engine.
