Back to car identification.
Make and coachbuilder for a point.
There may be an extra point if you can name the man at the wheel.

Well to me it has the look of a late 1930s body by the Carlton Carriage Co.

It is a British coachbuilder, 1930s but not by Carlton...

Not that famous but not that obscure either.......
The coachbuilder ceased business in 1939.

The man behind the wheel was very well known for his voice (not a singer)

Hard to know as I have no visual memory of most of the well-known voices I know!
Could it be Valentine Dyall?

Well the man billed as "The Voice of them All" in that sort of timescale was Peter Cavanagh who looked like this, which is similar at least.
