My Dad had two of those when I was a kid ... had a long horizontal/rectangular speedometer, if I remember correctly.
I think it was probably those cars that started my love of big cars.
It all went downhill a bit after that though; we had family cars like Ford Escorts, a Hillman Imp and even a Metro (urgh!) later.
