I think that Choppertrain may be right; I haven't found better pictures of X26 that could get every doubt away, but quiz car seems quite little to me to be a 38cv. In 1911 such a power was mostly reserved to limousine and 7 passengers tourer.
Anyway, it's a pleasure to discover among the Rookies someone like Choppertrain who shares with us the excitement of digging in car history.

Trying to tidy up some really old puzzles on this board.
Any chance you could do something with this one Robbie?

What do you suggest, should I move it to solved or black hole?

I tlhink I'd move it to Solved, since the marque has been identified.
It's virtually 5 years now and no-one has been able to add the model name so I doubt whether putting it into the Black Hole would elicit any further response and I think it would spend the rest of its life there!
