'Heart' taillights (introduced October 1, 1952, the 'Zwitter'), but oval rear window limits to March 10, 1953; single tailpipe so no later than 1955 (dual tailpipe introduced with the new MY system, for MY1956, on August 4, 1955; also larger taillights) 1953-55 possible as said by @rjluna2, De Luxe Saloon in GB Strange numberplate, foreign vehicle? -- Last edit: 2017-02-01 02:42:23 |

Did France have those red export plates as early as 1956?? |

Channel ferry terminal (Dover-Calais, I guess, or Portsmouth), so rather a French car? |

It's the Dover ferry unloading at Boulogne - https://youtu.be/moC0_tOgtLw?t=571 . Looks as if might be LHD and not a UK plate, but impossible to read characters or font. Silver/white on red French temporary plates seem to have started in 1955 (or maybe earlier??), or there was the French diplomatic format of white on green (again listed from 1955 or earlier). My guess is it's one of these 2 possibilities returning home. |

LHD, by the missing mirror? I thought so as well, but there are others listed without Probably not mandatory yet anyway, by your regulations |
