Definite PV influence in the front end...



There are some lovely styling details on it...but I'm not sold on the front end. I like PVs (although I doubt I'd own one)...but I think that's one styling cue that ought to stay in the 1950s. A C70 which looks more like a P1800 though...!

cheers

James
