Identify car on book

Letter to the editor

The cover of a book I am reading [Evelyn Waugh: The Complete Short Stories. Penguin Modern Classics] features a pre war sports car that I cannot identify. It is a Zoltan Glass photo of a handsome large 2 seater with pointed tail with side mounted spare wheel, a very thin/delicate radiator surround and has very unique large hubs protruding from the disc wheels. I wonder if you can identify it please.

Roger

Stoewer V5. Not a large car, perhaps a small driver.
