Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please tell me the marque and year of this car.

Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids.

Well I didn't have the model name but I will trust your knowledge! The point is yours.
This particular unit lives in Norway. Here is its story:
"The car was purchased by Knut C. Langaard from Oslo in 1909 (Son of Christian Langaard, a member of the Royal Norwegian Automobile Association.) In the autumn of 1910, Knut Langaard moved to Kvam farm and brought the car with him.
In 1914, the car was sold to Otto Schulz on Egge farm. He used it until 1917 when it went out of use due to technical problems. The car was left in a barn at Egge farm until 1975 when it was sold to Øivind Ofstad, Trondheim.
In 1999, the car was purchased by the Nord-Trøndelag Motor History Association, which had it restored. For the first time since 1917, the car was run on the road in the veteran race in connection with the 100th anniversary of the first postal car in Norway on 26 July 2008."

(Fëdor, I would be grateful if you could send me your source for the model name through a private message)
