Very nice. I have a classic too but very much younger than yours. Have not got twin tanks on it either.
Have only just managed to get the seat in a reasonable position to drive it in comparative comfort!

My guess is a Volvo S40/V50 2.0D, judging by the fuel remaining.
By the way the Peugeot 3008 and 5008 are virtually identical cars with identical dashboards. (One is a 5 seater, the other a 7). They have filler caps on different sides. Go figure. Well, they are French, what do you expect?
