Yup, it's not apparent from the photo but that's a RHD version, manufactured and sold in the Union of South Africa.

You know what the make is, but do you recognize the exact type?>

Porsche 356. "Exact type" (OK, maybe some other letters...)

Take a good look Porsche-philes and supply the letters that come after 356.

Well the lousy photo and the front bra make things difficult but I'm gonna guess it's a T5 roadster (356B)

Yup that's good, as far as it goes. It is a 356B Roadster but it's also a particularly rare one, take a good look at the windshield frame.

My bad, the pictured car is not a T5/356B. It is in fact a late variant of the 356A, one of the most desireable 356 Roadsters IMO.
 
To make up for my Boo-boo, here's a good picture of a different example with the top up>

Ah well now I can see the front running lights, shape of the front bumper and details of the hub caps.
 
I was going solely on the spear on the side (roadster) and the dim view of the bumper over-rides.
 
I think in terms of desirability/value, the 356B twin-grille roadster is the "hot one" these days.
