The light coloured car is a Flying Standard, but not enough visible to go nap on the horsepower. |

Third window means Flying Ten or above, split rear window early 1936-37 style. Might be a Twelve or higher as boot shape on Ten seems more rounded at top?? |

Might? |

Ten Mk.I and Light twelve had the same more compact body (with I believe shallower wheel arches as in the movie). After re-reading descriptions here http://www.wheels-alive.co.uk/flying-standards-a-transformative-range/ 1936 Flying Ten Mk.I [10AS] 1343cc or Flying Light Twelve [12ALS] 1608cc sv, so coin-toss required? |

Were there more Tens than Light Twelves? Might be a default option to go for the one of which they built the most. |

The Flying Ten Mk.I was introduced essentially as a Twelve with a smaller engine and was produced from March to August 1936 before a smaller bodied Ten Mk.II based on a lengthened Nine was introduced. From then until October 1938 the 'Ten' engine was also offered as an option in the Twelve. So always a sub-model of the Twelve itself. |
