I think it's a Mercedes-Benz 220 Cabriolet (?W187), 1951-5.

Could it be the V8 MG from the late 80s/early 90s?

Fuel prices are very high in Europe. What are the owners burning in these 60s American cars? I understand there are some who can afford to use these as daily driving cars.

You wanna see very happy people? Then watch the petrol-station-owners in the Swedish town of Vesteras, when the big US-car-meeting (I think, the biggest in Europe) is hold. A friend of mine, who is living there, has told me about that scenes.
What else shall be better for a petrol-station-holder, than a queue of dozen's of old US-cars, which are waiting for a full tank of gas :smile:


By the way: this weekend seems to be that one with highest fuel-prices in Germany ever - yesterday the litre of Diesel costs up to 1,39 and 1,40 Euro, high octane-fuel was more than 1,50 Euro.
I was lucky and could get Diesel for 121.9 Euro at an automatic gas-station in Venlo/NL.

The Rover seems to have 4 doors, or it could ba a trick of light. I don't know where to look for door handles.

@58_Roadmaster: it does have four doors; check out Alexander's link above. Just another of Rover's uses for the ex-Buick 3.5 litre V8 (compare P6 3500, early Range Rovers etc.)

I was just curious why the Rover [P5B] was called a Coupé?

There already was a P5 saloon/sedan (check it out, there must be some on the site). The ‘Coupé’, although a 4-door, had a lower roof-line (and a lot more brightwork, particularly round the side windows) and perhaps was intended to sell to customers who found the sedan rather fusty and understated. Coupé, after all, simply means ‘cut’ or ‘cut down’, so you could say it’s justifiable!

It's a pity I can't see the front, but it might be an Opel Kapitän, 1938-50. I'm open to correction on that, though.

Not a Kapitän:

... but I have no match myself. The middle strut of the front screen looks rather unusual.
