Description

The P4 was built from 1949-64, it replaced the P3 with a completely new rounded body, but engines were carried over from the P3. The P4 was one of the last UK cars to incorporate rear-hinged suicide doors. As time went on different models were available. The original P4, the 75 was built from 1949-59, early cars got the Cyclops eye in the centre of the grille (removed in 1952) it got the 2100cc 6cyl. The 1954 Mk II got a 3 piece wraparound rear window. In 1957 the whole P4 range got a facelift, a new grille and indicators moved up on the wings.
