This car looked familiar to me but I couldn't place it right away. The Bonhams sign in the background ( ;)) helped me finding it in the end : Siata 750 Gran Sport from 1937, body by Zagato

That's correct yes.
This is the 3rd puzzle in as many weeks that I've given away by a clue somewhere in the picture, but quite how you spotted a Bonhams sign in this picture is another puzzle to me..  If I blow up the size to try to read something it blurs whatever it is and deems it unreadable..

Below is the original picture on which you can see all the Bonhams signs that I did get rid of..!

I'll have to brush up my modification skills!

First of all I have good eyes  ;) , and the Bonham's logo is indeed quite vague but good enough to 'read' it. And of course, I had to go through many pages on the Bonham's website before finding the Siata !
