Is this based on an MGA?
I must admit that quirky adaptations like this one fascinate me.

I am hopeful that the car was built in France! If not, I am out of my depth, and you may unlock.

It may be unsporting to ask if the "colony" or protectorate is still officially French. So instead, may I ask what hardwood(s) were used in the construction?

Superb puzzle!

Agree.
Can't help thinking the Algerian responsible should have left well alone though...!
