I finally found a couple more cars painted with Sonia Delaunay designs
https://unkmapied.fr/musee-automobile-mode-malaga/
all the sources will report is that it is a 1924
http://www.baronnesamedi.com/2020/03/malaga-le-musee-de-l-automobile.html says that "The artist-painter Sonia Delaunay was the first to personalize a car"
this 1928 Citroen B14 is now at the Mullin Museum
the Getty collection says the following about the dotted cart: circa 1935: A fashionably dressed woman in a dress by Mlle Eigrane stands with her dog by a Citroen car which has white-walled tyres and is painted with random coloured circles by 'Valentine'

Never taunt or race a guy that names his car Bunny... he probably has a monster that will wipe you out, and you'll NEVER live it down if you're beaten by a car named Bunny (thanks Steve!)
Gerald Herbert's Bunny III was a 15.9hp Singer set up for racing, seen here on Avenue des Acacias (now Rue des Acacias) in Paris. Bunny III was in France to compete in the Mayenne Hill Climb (won its class). 1912 photo by Jacques-Henri Lartigue. From 1910 to 1912 there were Bunnies I through VII - all racing Singers.
In 1912, at the Brooklands May Meet (held in the rain) Bunny III was the only Singer entered in the 100mph short handicap. Driven by George Tysoe, Bunny III started halfway back in the pack in the handicap ratings, but easily won at 76.5mph. Singer's response to the win by the sole Singer entry was an advertisement that bragged - "The Singer Way!! One race, one car, one win."
