That's a glasshouse.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

Yes, it is the Mahieux CF3. But it was built by Francois Mahieux, not by Charles Faroux who already died in 1957. The CF designation was chosen by Mahieux to commemorate his great great uncle Charles Faroux.

Yes, of course, thank you very much, for correction. I answered much too fast, without checking, what I do. I knew, that the car has been built by F. Hahieux, but due to the letters "FC" in the car's name, I opted, that Charles Faroux, may have designed that car... Not possible, he died long before..., You are absolutely right. Will prepare my next answers slower, and much more accurate, by searching in books, at first...
