This is a Tweenie cyclecar, made by Alfred Dunhill, London. The engine is a vee-twin water cooled JAP. I think this car is the car that is in Australia.

It was distributed by Dunhill as Tweenie was made in France, but otherwise a perfect answer:
"There was even a brief venture into car marketing, with Dunhill's taking on the agency for the French-built "Tweenie" cyclecar whose friction drive gave a remarkable seven forward speeds and offered "rapid acceleration, top-gear hillclimbing and handiness in traffic akin to the attributes of a high-powered motorcycle".
