[Paul Jaray]

Bouquet, Garcin and Schivre?

[Wendax]

Yes, locked for you to find the model name

[Paul Jaray]

I read what is written in Georgano's Encyclopedia, the Beaulieu, Burgess-Wise's and a new 2 volume encyclopedia "Automobiles Francaises du XIX Siecle", were there are 2 pages and 4 pictures about BGS. Unfortunately, so far, no names starting with " L' ". Looking in my files, now, but it will take time. I read that the British Electromobile Company from Yorks was distributor for BGS cars...could it be L'Electromobile, then?

[Wendax]

No, a little less prosaic.

[Paul Jaray]

An adjective, like 'L'elegante'?

[Wendax]

No, a noun

[Paul Jaray]

Is there any other car with that name?

[Wendax]

Yes, two of them mentioned here at AP.

[Paul Jaray]

Something car-related like L'Automotrice?

[Wendax]

No
