The Eight had a single rectangular rear windscreen and was a very small car, the Ten looked like a bigger version, but had twin rear screens looking like two “D” shapes back to back. The Twelve and Sixteen were bigger still, looking like a Ten from behind, but with a separate spare wheel compartment below the boot. Both larger cars used the same bodyshell but different engines. The car looks to me to be tubby enough to be one of the large ones.
