Deleted my original post as I have looked at more MGA roadster and I think it is now. Dunno what was going on with the original piccie I was looking at.

Looking at them is making me miss my coupe quite badly

XK150 perhaps? I might be completely wrong.

[judas]

Nope, definitely an MG-A

[SystemParanoia]

I can't match the wing mirrors to anything!

Aragh!

Just had a look at an xk150 and I am completely wrong :P

A lot of '50s cars had no wing mirrors, or just one. In many cases they are retro-fitted with whatever the owner fancied at the time. This is what we had to do with our MG-A, though ours were fitted on the wings rather than the doors.

It's a B 1000 or Barkas. Old GDR stuff, very reliable.
