The concept of a four-door coupe isn't that new, isn't it?

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

Humber Snipe, 1933, but guessing at Thrupp & Maberley body.

The picture was taken from the manufacturer's catalogue. It doesn't tell who made the bodywork.

In a scale between Widely known (Citroen)-known (Rosengart)-not very known (Ravel)-quite obscure (Fonck), how would you describe it?

Conduite Interieure is too generic, I think.
According to what I read there was a Surbaissee Aerodynamique too but not listed for this model. Is that the name you are looking for?

I am not looking for the body type description, but a name. Like a 1939 Hotchkiss, where the saloon was called Cabourg, the coupe Côte d'Azur, the convertible Biarritz and so on...
