Ok.. What if I say the correct car but wrong place? Someone comes without even knowing the car says the right answer because it is obvious 1/2 :D Please tell me what should I do..
It's not my puzzle, but if you allow me I'd say "that's the game, pal". You've got to take chances.

Thanks, Ray, that's exactly it.
If you know either of the two cars left you must know the town that would be associated with it: if you have a choice of two, that takes at most two guesses!
Even if your English geography is not good, if you know the name you might well find the image I used.

Whatever! My guess is:

Car #5 - 1922 Vulcan 20 HP Tourer from Southport and picture #4 to be Southport...

Yes!
At last you've declared the right answer, which you probably thought you knew for some time!

Now you know that the remaining unsolved one of each are a pair, it shouldn't take long, should it?

That would leave car #2 and town #3... A 1914 Crossley 15 HP Shelsley, built in Manchester, of which we see there he town hall.

#30
Quite right!

So the correct answers are:
Car 1 Autovia by Arthur Mulliner which was made in Town/City 1 Coventry - DynaMike
Car 2 Crossley Shelsley which was made in Town/City 3 Manchester - DynaMike
Car 3 Talbot 110 which was made in Town/City 2 London - Arunas
Car 4 Star 15 h.p.which was made in Town/City 1 Wolverhampton - DynaMike
Car 5 Vulcan 20 h.p. which was made in Town/City 4 Southport - Arunas

Points have been awarded at the rate of 2 per correct pairing.
