What about MG?

No, not MG-based either.

The ubiquitous 1172 cc Ford side-valve, yes!

I've just learned this is actually a re-post.
However, the reason it didn't show up on my search is that I have a model name for it which didn't appear anywhere in the original puzzle thread.
In that case I'll leave it where it is and whoever can add this model name will get a point before I merge it.
It does mean I can't promote it to the Pro's however, so if no-one gets it I'll simply end up merging it.

Am I going to have to merge this or is someone going to come up with the model name?
Maybe I should give the Pros the chance to do that?

I have found it as Delaney Delta built  by Eric Delaney in the 50s, the source say 1954. It has Citroën coil and wishbone front suspension and rack and pinion steering,  Ford transverse leaf and solid axle at the back and the 1172 sidevalve Ford engine.

Exactly!
1 point for you and I'll merge it with woodinsight's original Delaney puzzle in due course.
Well done.
