Really nice car. First I thought a Renault because of the grill but I have the feeling it is a Mercedes. Right ?

Mercedes Benz by Zupka Lajos. It is usually referred to as a 540K, but I feel it is probablly earlier.

Thank you I answered without checking the Hungarian car site where is is clearly referred to as a Mercedes Benz 'S'.
