What a nice arrangement this picture has...  :)

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

OK it's the Suzuki Cervo C ("C" for "Classic") three door version, produced 1997-98

Yes, a Japanese car trying to look like an Italian one, standing in front of an English cottage wit a French licence plate.

One more point for you.

Clever, these Japanese artists.  I doubt very much whether that car ever left Japan..
I can't identify where that Post Office is that it's supposedly parked outside!

Luccombe in Somerset  :)

Carnut

You're right!
It wasn't the Post Office in those days..
What does it say above the door?  It looks like Metnor or Hetnor but I couldn't find anything resembling that; it could perhaps sound a bit Somerset or Devon-ish.

Seems to be Hetnor, but I couldn't find a meaning either.

The building is Ketnor's store and Post Office on Stoney st. in Luccombe, Somerset England.

Well done!
Almost worth a point...!

Thanks for the kind words.

Actually, it was quite fun trying to solve a puzzle that didn't involve automobiles or trucks.

I didn't save it, but you can Google the name Ketnor and the location and you can get a family tree sort of history.  They were in that area for a long,long time.  The last dated photo I saw was in the late 1990's so I imagine the store and the family are still there.
