It's not in the A-Z of British Coachbuilders, because all that's left there is Meredith. So that's me out......

I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

No, it's not in that book excellent though it is.

There is another 'R' in the name - no more clues now

I managed to find a coachbuilder with a name that fits the clues, however my reference is for the late 1800's, so I don't know if he ever built car bodies, but I will give it a try.  1929 Bentley Speed Six by Mortimer?

That's it!  .......and another point is added to your score.

I don't know where Mortimer was situated or which other cars were bodied.
Perhaps if Bentleybob reads this he may be able to tell us more.
