That's a Swallow Doretti. The company that became Jaguar Cars started out as Swallow Sidecars, then became SS Cars, then of course after WW2 didn't want to remind people of the German SS so renamed itself after its last model, the Jaguar. But Swallow Sidecars had split from the business years before, and ended up producing this car. Think this again is Triumph TR based.

No idea on this one, possibly a Vauxhall of some sort if it actually is British.
