Wrong marque, and the body style is not relevant.

Not a well-known marque, so maybe the Pros will have to solve this one.

I have this picture saved as Anglada from Spain. Having looked further, I think it is 24 hp bought by/made for King of Spain Alfonso XIII.

Yes. One of a handful of cars made by Francisco Anglada Gallardo. He offered several models for sale, but from the information I can find, very few were actually built. This one dates from about 1904, the year he ceased production.

Yes, it is an Anglada, but, according to my reference, it is not the 24 hp for King Alfonso XIII of Spain. Rather it is a smaller 1903 Anglada 2 cylinder 10CV acquired by Mr. Soto Hernandez and Co., of Montevideo, Uruguay, and reputed to be the first car exported from Spain.

This is interesting. The image I used for the puzzle was taken from a website which has disappeared from the internet. I have found other sites which include the puzzle photo but they are very vague as to which car this is.

I have found another photo of the 1903 Anglada 10CV which seems to be the same car. So 4 popoid is correct and I am wrong. I think the best thing will be to allow Arunas to keep his point, award another point to 4popoid for correctly indentifying the puzzle car, and to modify the title of the puzzle.

Thank you for the point. I will PM the link where I found most of my information.
