We are looking at the site of a car manufacturer and dealer. I can't tell you whether the cars visible here were made or just distributed by this manufacturer.

For one point, please respond and identify this company.

No, less known

Your original puzzle question is very interesting, and we have all ignored it. The answer is a car maker who also sold other marques - so as you say, it's not going to be one of the big names like Panhard or de Dion.

I haven't got any idea.

Wendax · « **Reply #23 on:** June 30, 2014, 02:54:02 PM »

Neither nor

Assuming the location is Lyon proper (not a location in the general area of Lyon), I'll try: Ateliers de Construction Mecanique et d'Automobiles Mieusset.
