Solved - MJW #1180 Darracq 20/98 Sports Saloon 1926

This is a replacement for the previous #1180 - a repost of the Platypus-Porsche.

Straight into the Experts then, identify the marque, model, year and coachbuilder for a point.

Talbot Darracq, but with a British body?

Identifying the car was the easy bit, I'm not so good with coach builders. I've since found this very car on that popular website about coachbuilt cars, and the car is a 1926 Darracq 20/98, and the body is by Grose.
