Looks like a Vauxhall PA Cresta (!) |

This scene is obviously in New Zealand (RHD car, NZ number plates), so it's not that surprising. http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/world/PA_NZEA.html |

I think it's actually a PA Velox : http://personal.inet.fi/cool/makkesgarage2/entiset/veh100-5.jpg |

You mean the blue one or the brown one? |

The blue PA on the right. |

My vote would go for a late model PA Velox 1961-1962 shown by the full wrap-round rear window and small tail-lights. I guess the Cresta had full two-tone paintwork and not just the contrasting coloured fins. The 'V' on the fins would have applied to both Cresta and Velox and I don't think there was any panel-work or chrome differences seen from the rear. |

the contrasting coloured fins are non original,probably the work of some over enthusiastic restorer |

This is a Vauxhall Velox 1961/62 of New Zealand. In New Zealand there was no Cresta sold. The contrasting coloured fins were original in New Zealand. |

Agreed. Velox on the left, Cresta on the right. Both cars appear in multiple scenes in the film. T |
