 Was listed as Austin 12/6 Ascot by whoever added the blank, but according to Butler James here the 12/6 had a grill script reading Austin Six. There does seem to be something written below Austin, could that be the Six script?

Here's a close shot of the grill of this one:

 July 34 plate - Birmingham, possibly registered by "The Austin" at Longbridge.

 This car is in fact not an Ascot at all - it is the forerunner, a 12/4 Harley. Compare with this photo

(I hope the perpetrator of that film has in the meantime also fallen off a cliff...)

 Just had another look at the photos. The car going over the cliff has no trafficator on the scuttle and looks like it has a boot: an Ascot from the scrapyard used for the crash scene.

 I have owned this car since 1978 sold to a Mr Williams on 10.07.1934 then Mr Frank Howard in March 1941 then to his son Mr Reg Howard in April 1965 then Mr John Cole Nov 1965. At present under restoration Registered on a SORN WITH DVLC as JSL 322 as original docs were lost. Have since obtained original paper log book and No plates so hope to reinstate original No. Yellow paint was applied by film studio meant to be washable it wasn't, the car going over cliff was scrap vehicle from a local scrap yard, made me look twice when I saw it in the film. Hope this fills in any blanks
