This car took part in the Lancashire Automobile Club's Manchester to Blackpool Veteran and Vintage Car Run in May 1992, and is pictured here in the Exchange Station car park in Manchester before the start of the Run.
It's the 1924 Amilcar CS of Roger Firth of Stalybridge, Cheshire, and that is the only information given in the programme of the event. The car was made at the Amilcar factory in Saint-Denis in Paris, to the north of the city centre, and has a 4-cylinder inline side-valve 1,004cc engine. I've found a very interesting article about the car by a subsequent owner, and you can read this here.
