 Land-Rover Series I 1952.  Very early Land-Rovers had their headlamps behind the grille.

 Rover 3½-litre (P5B). David Bache's classic lines for this 4-door coupe are clear in this view, and in 2005 Mercedes-Benz created their own 4-door coupe the CLS which seems to have borrowed from the P5 Coupe. Rover P5B
