No quiz, just some links to some stunning cars. Honestly I wasn't 'reading' the Daily Mail when I found the links

Back to the challenge.

What's this and what 'first' does it hold (the model not the individual car)

If you can determine the make and model without googling that would be good, the 'first' that it holds will probably need to be searched for.

To me it looks like what was called an English Ford?

I thought it was a Moskovich, but when I Googled :oops: to check my theory, it was of similar design, but different.

Not English (or British), not Russian either.

Come on then BB, with the aid of google did you find out what it is or did you find out what it isn't ?

It was called the Corona in Japan, but what was it called here in Thailand ?
Right decade, 1964 is the year.
