Made in the UK, but was it meant to look like an American car?

Djetset · « **Reply #17 on:** November 12, 2019, 04:22:24 PM »

It’s in an American neo-retro style, but I think it’s trying to look like a pre-war Mercedes!

"neo retro", implying this wasn't made in 30-40, but much newer? Guessing 80s-90s?

Yes, it’s post-war, but slightly earlier than the 1980s-90s.

Does it have any Merc parts perchance?

No Mercedes parts to my knowledge.

If I´m not wrong it´s made in the former Yugoslavia

No former Yugoslavian connections as far as I know.

So part of the name of this new-classic has an American car brand?
