The base car is obvious, so no points for guessing that, but to gain a point, please tell me the make and model name of this six-door limo conversion.

Robert Jankel?
Bentley Azur or Continental based?

It is Bentley-based, but neither a Continental nor Azur, and it's not by Robert Jankel.

Is it a Silver Mist 6-door limousines by Coway Ltd?

No.
Likewise, not by A.W. Lymn (designed and commissioned the Silver Mist), correct?

Well, this is by A.W.Lmyn, so you are halfway there! Now Locked to you to give me the model name (which is not Silver Mist, if such a name was ever used, as I gather it sounds like something rather unpleasant in German, unless this is an urban myth?!).

That name still appears on their website!  :)

Hmm, odd. This is probably the strange (ironic) British sense of humour!

This Puzzle car had a distinct model name (I will post a photo of the badge once it is solved) that was not Silver Mist, so still Locked to you for another try.

To be clear, Lymn is a Limousine service and not a builder. The Silver Mist cars were designed and commissioned by Lymn, but built by Coway. I will look for the correct model name, but it may turn out that Mogul has named the actual builder.

Yes, I know that Lymn doesn't actually make the limo conversions itself; it commissions them. I can't find the Silver Mist on-line, but can see the Puzzle car name (unique to Lymn) littering the internet, so should be easy to find for your Lock.

I'm looking for the model of the puzzle car, but thought I should share this in the meantime:

Mogul

If so, it seems that my reply was correct......

Sorry, but still not correct as the Silver Mist is a Rolls-Royce base, and the Puzzle car is a Bentley (as can be seen by the badge!). One last Lock for GTE.

Well done GTE, you got there in the end, so another point to you.

Here's a photo of the rear of the Bentley (plus the front), clearly showing its A.W.Lymn and Birkin badging. To be honest I'd never heard of the car, but it was used for a friend's wedding a few weeks ago and it caught my eye.
