Classic Car: BMW 340 (1954) Editorial Photo

The BMW 340, subsequently rebadged as the EMW 340, was a large six-cylinder four-door passenger saloon produced at Eisenach, Germany, initially in the name of BMW. It was described in 1948 as the first new car model produced in Germany after the war: despite new body panels, under the skin it was a modified version of the BMW 326 with which it shared its engine and wheelbase. Seen in Hankasalmi, Finland, in July 2013 - and still going strong.
