    No, but the cars are similar - the problem with the many small manufacturers in the UK in the 50s and 60s - they all look alike

    I think the first one is Hudson
    The second does not ring a bell at all.

    But the name is not British

    I had to go check.
    The addition of the flag was later in the company history.
    Original badge didn't have it.
    Another hint .... that flag is BEHIND the bull too.
    It reflects when the company moved from it's original base to this location.
    ( It is no United Kingdom )
