chris40 ◊ 2010-02-10 21:43	With this 'face' - the so-called 'Cyclops' - it can only be a 75. From Wikipedia: 'The original P4, the model 75, arrived in 1949. It featured controversial modern styling which contrasted with the outdated Rover P3 which it replaced, and which was heavily based on the bullet-nosed Studebakers of the same era. One particularly unusual feature was the centrally-mounted headlight in the grille. Known as the "Cyclops eye", it was removed after 1952.'
