No other view in ep (or anywhere else in S1), and I assume the main is same car as thumbs. Rear side window as shown is not part of door and has its own opening vent; also no heated rear window or tints. And it has a carphone which if genuine suggests a console in rear. Stretched Granada Mk2? Or something stretched from Aus?? Or??
