Might this be a Hindustan Ambassador??

It certainly could be, an early model (1957-63) with the Morris Oxford grille; but if this was filmed in ZA it's likely to be a Morris. BTW the thumbnails are of an early Austin A55 Mk.I - which AFAIK was never exported to India.

Does it bears India plates? :think:

Apparently, but until recently Indian plates were mostly hand-painted and easy to fake.

In this shot we can't tell if it's a good fake Indian plate or a bad fake Indian plate. :)

Does anyone know which building was used for the hotel exteriors in Ep. 2.01 and 2.02? At the end of Ep. 2.02, Scott and Stonebridge have a conversation next to what appears to be a Boer War monument.

You can see "1902" is part of the inscription.

Could this be related to Second Boer War?

The Old City Hall in Cape Town was used as the exterior for the hotel:

So Morris Cowley or Oxford pretending to be a Hindustan Ambassador.

chris40 UK

Indeed. More likely an Oxford than a Cowley, I'd say; not many buyers went for the poverty-spec.

1954 S2 for Oxford detail?

No, 1956+ S3. Fluted bonnet.

Turns out it was the town hall in Durban, which looks very similar:
