Any idea what the vehicle in the background might be? ( p1800?)
Or the scene?

Volvo 1800
In reply to John Welsh :
Thought it might be. Any idea what the movie or show might have been?
No movie or show. Fashion shoot by photographer Peter Lindbergh, circa 1990.

dudes got ankle turbos!
I've never been good at dating them. Is that a P1800 or an 1800S/E?
In reply to buzzboy :
The early ones, from 1961 to 1963, were designated P1800. Panels stamped by Pressed Steel in Scotland and assembled by Jensen in England. These cars had the bull horn front bumpers. Volvo didn't like the build quality, so moved production to Sweden in 1964. These cars were designated 1800S - S is for Sweden (not Sport).
In 1969, the designation changed to 1800E (fuel injection).
The final version of the car was a shooting brake, the 1800ES, built in 1972 and 1973.
Ah, front bumper. Got it. I've always been a pedant about P vs no-P but based purely on year. I didn't know the visual distinguisher.
