Wolfy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Not sure if it was ever an MV or just civvy but I like the look of it a lot. Wheels and markings look military. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean N Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wikipedia claims 'The Juvaquatre was heavily inspired by the German Opel Olympia, a car which Louis Renault had been impressed by during a 1935 visit to Berlin (consequently the Juvaquatre, particularly early models, bore a strong resemblance to the Olympia).' Kadett and Olympia are very similar but the radiator grille / cowl is much more upright and rounder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfy Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Thanks for the links, tempting to buy but a basket case on something I know little about would be risky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
