I am a bit late on this one. I notice you do not mention the make or the year of the car. There is no registration visible to help in dating or origin. The car is French, from a company with British management. The radiator shape is new for the post 1912 period, and has the new badge. This seems to be a cca 1913 Darracq Torpedo Tourer, probably the V14 16HP.
