I think U was used for Leeds, pre 1921.

There was/is a Brunswick hotel in Bridlington.

Can't help on the make of car, sorry.

From newspaper adverts spotted Brunswick Hotels at Morley and Wetherby - early 1900s - and a Brunswick Garage at Camp Road, Brampton.

Radiator is wrong shape for a Rolls-Royce?
And no lady/angel on the top of the radiator.
