Its RHD and a prototype, so that would suggest British
In the background there are Italian cars, but looking a bit like a British stately home car show.
Its Silver
I have no idea!

Italian - yes As far as I know, pic taken in USA - Palm Beach show. oh yes - it's still silver  They still make cars today, but do not sell in the UK anymore, not since the 80's. But have told they are due back in the 2009/10. This car, which the prototype is based on, opened the doors for selling the car in the USA and sold well in its time (so I was told). |

I remember a silver Lancia from the early sixties, that had a Pinifarina badge on it, but it looked more like a stylish Morris Oxford, and it didn't rot like the ones from the 1970s, so my guess would be Aurelia,
and Google tells me its 52

Correct -my details show 54, but thats only 2 years so bloody good homework. Well you did leave a lot of clues, but it was only when I remembered the silver Lancia that I realised that they were more than the Delta and a load of rustbuckets |

I Think it is a Borgward "Goliath" ..........and they raced the "Borgward" at Lemans in 1953 Well done Andy, correct.  1934 Goliath Pionier |
Borgward was a German car manufacturer that made quite a few interesting models, and yet very few ever found their way to the United States. Goliath, was a subset of Borgward that operated from 1928 to 1959 and specialized in three-wheeled cars and trucks such as the unusual car in this photo.
This car is a 1934 Goliath Pionier. In the early-to-mid thirties people in Germany were looking for inexpensive personal transportation. The Pionier was created to meet this need. This car, a three-wheeler with a 1-cylinder, 2-stroke engine, was cramped and weak but met the modest standards of most German drivers. The wooden body was covered with artificial leather and mounted on a strong U-profiled chassis. In 1934, 4,000 units were sold.
Goliath continued to upgrade and innovate its micro-cars into the 1950s. Eventually, however, the company lost market share to the new VW Beetle and the DKW F89P Meisterklasse, cheaper cars that had more interior space and power.
The Goliath brand died in 1959. Borgward, which had built its first car in 1929, survived in Germany until 1963. Later that year all manufacturing equipment for the Borgward Isabella and P100 (their final two models) was sold to Mexico where production was continued until 1970 OK you lot are getting too good so need to try and find a harder one |

And now the next one -
as we have not had a van for a while and that's what started this posting, here's one I found earlier - what is it ?
Who can tell me more about this one. A favorite of mine, for some reason.
