Hi, is that a Peugeot, perhaps type 143 from 1913?

[Otto Puzzell]

Not a Peugeot. Not entirely French, either.

[Ray B.]

Is it a Corre La Licorne ?

[Otto Puzzell]

It is not.

[jimjarron]

Circa 1912 Humber 12/20?

[Otto Puzzell]

Not a Humber. Remember not entirely French was an earlier reply/clue.

Napier?

[Otto Puzzell]

No sir.

[jimjarron]

Can't say I really understand that clue (I didn't even realise it was one), but how about a 1912 Le Zèbre A?

[Ray B.]

And what about a 1911 Berliet AK (I didn't take time to check what wasn't french in this one)

[Otto Puzzell]

Can't say I really understand that clue (I didn't even realise it was one), but how about a 1912 Le Zèbre A?

The clue was meant to let folks know that while this car is not all French (like a Peugeot, for instance), there some Frech in it.

Not a Le Zèbre .

[Otto Puzzell]

And what about a 1911 Berliet AK (I didn't take time to check what wasn't french in this one)

No

[DynaMike]

Not entirely French... makes me think of Sunbeam-Darracq or Talbot-Darracq. But I couldn't find anything matching, though.

[Otto Puzzell]

No, neither of those...

[jimjarron]

Circa 1911 Sunbeam 16/20?

[Otto Puzzell]

No sir.

[Allemano]

Some Czech relation?

[Otto Puzzell]

No

[Joao Gois]

Maybe British car with French coachwork?

[Otto Puzzell]

Sorry, folks. My earlier clues appear to have been incorrect. This car is 100% French, apparently.

[Joao Gois]

Le Zébre?

[Otto Puzzell]

No sir.

Yesterday, by pure accident, I stumbled upon it: a 1914 Vinot (or Vinot-Deguingand) AM Tourer. I am anything but an expert of the era; here is what a respectable source says of the name of the manufacturer:
The double-barrelled name Vinot-Deguingand was only used early in the company's history; once the cars became established they were always known simply as Vinots.
They introduced their first cars as early as 1901, so a 1914 model might fall into the 'established' period I suppose?
