This car is related to your guess.

Lancia?

The operative word here is "related", I am thinking. Hmmm...what is related to the Alfalfa Romeo? Mayhaps it is a a Ferrari design form the period during which Il Commendatore was an underling at Alfa?

Maybe not.
aLfa.
A very red car on British plates of modern issue, so perhaps we are supposed to think it's an Italian.
So I shall suggest it's French!

No.
I think AllanL is fitting in rather nicely with the flow of the site, don't you?
Just what we need around here.....ANOTHER cheeky bastard! ;D

My ancestry is my own business - anyway I have documents! ;D
I've got a pedigree too! I was one of a litter of six. I was the one they kept! Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck.
This car has a pedigree too. As well as some blatant hints. With this tremendous collection of arcane automotive knowledge here at AutoPuzzles, no one can get closer than MG?
Fiat?
Dan
Itala?
Not a Fiat, or Italia.
Keep trying.
Nobody's said Maserati yet...
Dan
Lagonda?
Dan
This car participated in a very famous race.

Mille Miglia?
Targa Florio?
Dan
Le Mans, then?
Lombard?
Italian, starts with an "L".
This shouldn't take too long.

Lombard?
Don't stop now.......
How d'you mean?
The French Lombard car took its name from Andre Lombard, who drove and was important in the history of Salmsons (and whose St Andrew's cross on the radiator derives from him (Andre is the French equivalent of Andrew)).
They raced in the 1100cc class at Le Mans in 1928 (Deavaux/Goutte) (13th) and 1931 (Charlé/Royer) (DNF) and I'd guess this is the later type.
They also made a straight-8 twin-cam 3-litre.

I believe there to be an insult in there somewhere, Abingdon....
;D
The following is not a guess, as AllanL already got the right answer. It is merely a confirmation.
It is a 1928 Lombard AL3 and it is not for sale!
<<< link removed >>>
That thing is STILL for sale? ;D

Oh, yeah. Apparently my reputation for sucking at these puzzles preceeds me! :hah:
Well, I have only one defense and so I must perforce make use of it, to wit: :buttkiss:
