So, a Citroen Traction Avant, so called because Traction Avant means front wheel drive which was very rare at the time, commonly shortened to Traction.
The yellow wheels look a bit odd, but the originals did have them. Not sure if exactly like those though.
Much beloved by the resistance and the Germans as wel, they have been found abandoned as far away as the Arctic circle, and yes, I'd like one. The end of their manufacture overlapped with the DS, pretty unbelievable, but then the Traction was way ahead of its time when it came out.

The yellow one, a Mini Marcos? My pa used to drink with Jem Marsh in Bradford on Avon while waiting to pick us up from school, after "prep".
The Brown interior, a Cortina Mk 3?? I had two when I was a rep, one auto one manual.
Some really lovely cars. Glad you had fun!!!
