When this film was made, the Ford Cortina had still to be introduced. Ford loaned the makers their entire 'run' of Cortinas to that point - 25 cars I believe.

First thumb, Peacocks of Balham used to be a big car dealer in South London (only 5 miles away from where i'm living now) My brother lives in Balham and told me they closed down a while back (a shame to see an old dealership go)

The production of the Cortina MkI ( Consul Cortina ) started in June 1962 and the model was launched in September the same year.
The main pic shows a Super Deluxe ( specific chrome trim and 1500cc engine ) that was only introduced in January 1963.

If you look closely at the bit where all the Cortinas leave the compound you will see that some of them were only two-door models. Not very practical for taxis!!

Also when watching the film lookout for some painted grille 'fleet' cars hiding in the back row

As OWC xxx plate series started Nov 62, the standard and deluxe had been in production for a few months, but this would be true for all the Supers which were not launched until Jan 63.
