1302, I guess.

1982+ Ford Granada on the left.

The only car with Spanish plates on the frame ... and they're from Tenerife :)

Absolute sure, that it's a fake.

The car itself is not original too. The colour ist not original, the badge neither. The wheels can be the "Weltmeister"-edition (the cap on the front right wheels looks like it), but I've the feeling, that it isn't an orignal 1302. Something looks non-original for me.
Didn't have the 1302 chrome-trims inside the window-rubbers?

Although faded, they must be there since the small union part kept its chrome finish. With this ten-vent engine lid and the crescent-shaped vents behind the rear side windows, I don't see why can't we consider it a 1971 car.

Cars with plate from the Canary Islands were pretty common in Spanish mainland by then. Since practically no imports were allowed, one of the ways to get a "foreign" car imported was through a resident form Canaries, a free trade zone at the time. So, for me, this one is one of the few real spanish plates of the whole film.

Ah, this is the reason! When I've checked the Volkswagen-export-statistics of the years 1971-1975 (for my K 70-literature-collection, what else), I've seen, how small the export to the Spanish mainland was, and that much more cars were exported to the Canaries.

1971 issue, so can be real.
