Ah thats the fun of it.

These were the only cars that had that unique C Pillar. Hillman Minx, Singer Gazelle and Sunbeam Rapier. Issue was when you search for the Minx this doesnt pop up.

Design seems european. But im all out of ideas.

[matroska]

I'm not sure what exactly this is but it sure gave me a Tintin vibe when I saw it ... I'm being a bit vague here but it looks to be some kind of Ford. 

 

[matroska]

Ok update - my guess is this is a 1948 Ford Deluxe

Very close in design but this has got a much longer bonnet and a 2 door. Made just after the war with a small engine. There have been rally versions as well coming from a country which produced the Rally champion in 1984. He has a name that is the same as one of the Topgear TV program member. That should direct you in the right path.

I'm sorry @Gummybr, but the answer is close but wrong. There seems to be a number mix up
