I will try Buick Roadmaster 1947 and the (Land Rover) Road Rover



Both have road in the name

Paul Jaray

We had this:
"both cars have a nickname containing the same word"

but yours is a new one!
Buick Roadmaster 1947 and the (Land Rover) Road Rover: both cars have a name containing the same word

Amsterdam

(Land Rover) Road Rover and the Volkswagen T1

Both have a front split window

Paul Jaray

Back to the easy ones!
Another good one...(I was going to include it in the 'same body style elements' but...)

barrett

VW T1 and Mercedes-Benz W110. Both are commonly known by nicknames derived from features of the bodywork (''Splittie'' and "Fintail/Heckflosse")


DynaMike

Mercedes [W110] Heckflosse     and     Auto Union 1000 S De Luxe     because both have a strange vertical thermometer-like speedometer


Amsterdam

Auto Union 1000 S De Luxe  and the Citroen DS

Both had the gear shift placed at the steering wheel.

Allan L

Pretty common, that feature, but if we haven't had it before . . .
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

guido66

Citroën DS and Aston Martin Lagonda

Both had a single spoke steering wheel

75america

Aston Martin Lagonda and BMW Glas 3000-V8
Both cars have another car brand name in their designation.


Ehhxekt

BMW Glas 3000-V8 'Glaserati' and  1953 'Studillac' (Studebaker Commander Starliner with a Cadillac engine installed by Bill Frick Motors).
Both cars have two car brand names merged in their nickname.


Amsterdam

1953 Studillac Studebaker Commander Starliner and the Horch car 5 HP model "Phaeton"

Both the founders of these companies have a background being blacksmiths before becoming car manufacturers.


DynaMike

#1015
Horch 5 HP Phaeton     and     Oldsmobile Curved Dash

because the founders of both makes, August Horch and Ransom E. Olds were dismissed by the companies board and started later a new make with their name in a different version (Audi and REO).

Amsterdam

Oldsmobile Curved Dash and the TVR 3 1951

Founders of both makes founded a car make name wich was a abbreviation of there own name (Ransom Eli Olds REO and TreVoR Wilkinson TVR)


DynaMike

TVR 3      and     Renault 7
as both cars have a model name that is the number of letters used in the brand name.

75america

Renault 7 and Suzuki Dzire

Both are disproportioned sedanized cars that were not built/sold in their home country (France/Japan)


Paul Jaray

Don't let this one be the last one!

DynaMike

Suzuki DZire (that's how it seems to be spelled)     and    Citroën DSuper 5
because both have the two beginning letters of their model name in capitals

yves

Citroen DSuper and Ford Zephyr MK4
Both cars have the spare wheel in front of the engine bay.


Iluvatar

Ford Zephyr and Maserati Bora,
both names are wind's names.

Maserati Bora and Maserati Merak.

Though different models, both share the same basic bodyshell.
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

I'm sorry, but we already had this one:
VW Golf Estate Wagon and Lincoln Zephyr: both cars are named after a wind...

back to the Zephyr Mk4.
