This is a Standard Eight unless there is something unusual about it.

Well it is, although I thought it was sold under another name ( I had read the page where I found it too fast ).
But it wasn't assembled in Great Britain.
The point is yours anyway, but maybe you can tell me where?
Standard Eights were assembled in several places, but as it is RHD it is likely to be India, Australia or South Africa. There don't appear to be any clues as to which one it might be.

Perhaps the far-side door is ajar to allow clearence for a didgeridoo ;D
As I have been unable to find any reference to the use of a didgeridoo by obscure tribes in India and South Africa that leaves only Australia. Something I didn't notice earlier is the use of what appears to be a non period British plate which could mean a late import of unverifiable year.

I was kidding - I have no idea where the car was built or sold.
Japanese?
Not japanese. Does this help?
Looks like a Standard Eight to me too - and it looks like an EK Holden beside it, but that number plate on the Standard looks a bit odd.....
I already said it was a Standard Eight.
Take a better look: I think it's a left hand drive. And behind it's not an EK Holden (not a panoramic windshield).
Well, that's a Swedish licence plate - and the Swedes didn't convert to right-hand-side driving until September 3, 1967...
Swedish alright. As for the steering wheel, it just seemed to me it was on the left, but it's not easy to see.
Alright. This isn't interesting enough to keep it there. Let's give JR his point and move it.
The car was assembled by ANA (AB Nyköpings Automobilfabrik) in Sweden. The company also assembled, among others, french Simcas, and I guess the green car behind is a Simca Vedette, Ariane or Versailles.
I knew where to look for it, and where you'd found it, but didn't bother to go through all those pages, so when I didn't find it under "Standard" I gave up :)
This is sad...I was waithing for this..(among others)..and it's been moved without even give us a chance...why...WHY...W-H-Y-Y-Y?
(days are getting longer in the desert, I know, I'd better stay away from the sun.....)
