It's a long shot, I know, but I have a reference to a 'Car, Six-seater Utility' with the Brit registration "4566088". Can anyone tell me the make and model please?

Thanks

Hi Mike,
From the Chilwell Census List for B Vehicles, I deduce it is a Ford, Car, 4 seater, 4x2 Utility. Contract no. V3935, Cat. Ref. 52. Would be a British built one with that contract number. Census numbers M4564874 to 4566574
