As a change from modern mass-produced pressed steel I offer this photo of a coach-built car taking part in a competition.
For your point please tell me the make and the coachbuilder; for an extra point name the competition; for another point who is driving?

Lea-Francis and Westland are correct so worth a point.
I didn't ask the engine size as I do not know if it was a 2½ litre or 1¾ litre.
So who's driving and on which event?

That's it and well found, so another two points for you.
Not being French we'd say the driver was Jack Frye and the co-driver was E H Kelleher
