Hmmm - I would be surprised. Location is Virginia Water...did they sell many there?

They were often issued to the staff to do the shopping.

Very similar to a Facellia, but subtly different.

Just seen the pics on the Facel thread - doesn't look right to me. Photo is taken from a re-issue of Fish Out of Water (very highly recommended by the way) so the car almost certainly belonged to Chris Squire. I know he had a Bentley but this doesn't look like a Bentley to me.

It almost looks like a Flying Spur, but the area just under the light isn't quite right

The rear light is AM DB4 but not the bumper. Quick search on goole shows it's not a Facel, AM DB4, AM Shooting Brake, Triumph Herlad, nor Gordon Keeble...see below. Am wondering if it may be an Italian Aston DB Special? Various design houses completed such projects. Really, struggling on this one...
