I have never seen a four seater MGTD.
The shape of the dashboard and the position of the instruments and minor controls looks very SS Jaguar, but there is not enough evidence to be certain.

Yes, it is not an MG, wrong instruments and too big.

I checked, but all those I saw have flat topped scuttles. Too big for a YT, the Y series was Morris Eight based.
I also checked AC 16/80.

Going by the instrument panel I reckon it is a Swallow SS1. - http://www.simoncars.co.uk/swallow/ss1.html

Tried googling for pictures of a black or dark blue Swallow SS1 with red wheels and found this "1934 JAGUAR SS1 TOURER 20 HP CHASSIS 248178" halfway down http://sbiii.com/ssjags-4.html which lead to https://www.classicdriver.com/en/car/jaguar/ss/1934/180997?feat=oldlink and http://www.ssjaguardata.com/gallery/zoom/?id=150826 . No hint of a plate, and it's in NL now so the trail runs out, but there can't be many with red wheels ....

There you have it.

According to S & G, the model name "Jaguar" was not introduced until 1936, the company remained trading as SS Cars until post WW2, so 1934 SS1 Tourer looks about right.
