The Vauxhall Cresta was available between 1954 to 1972 but the name was attached to four distinct and very different car designs. This is the Vauxhall Cresta PA - manufactured between 1957 and 1962 with 81,841 made. And what a cool car! Perhaps it doesn't look British: the tail-fins, and wrap-around windows are totally American - but it was actually built in Luton, England. Two tone Maroon/Grey finish, with leather seats. "Cresta - the most luxurious Vauxhall" as early promotional material states. Looks pretty good inside too. This one was registered in April 1961. 2651cc ohv I6 engine.
