Somehow I've got the impression that this is a late thirties Standard... But I couldn't find the right model yet.

From the grill, sides of the bonnet and rear window, Austin 10hp or 12hp (1939) I believe, probably 12hp.

The actual car could be either an Austin 12 or Austin 16. The 12 had a sidevalve engine and the 16 an overhead valve, but from the outside the only difference was the badge on the grille. However, the 12 was made in 1939, and the 16 in 1946, and since this movie is set in the war years, this must be a 12.

Usually in movies set in the war (or just before) they make the mistake of using cars made just after the war but that look similar enough for most of the viewers.

I know it's almost four years, but ... the thumbs are a Humber Super Snipe, 1938-40: 'Car, 4-seater, 4x2'.
