My suggestion would be RMB, the altve would be RMF, but nothing to be gained from the age related non original number plate. All the images provide perfect obfuscation of almost every recognition point, but the design of the front sidelight rules out RME, and the length of the bonnet, IMO, rules out RMA too. I think that the fuzzy image of the rear window also eliminates RMF, but not certain on that. -- Last edit: 2020-08-17 17:33:29 |

RMA was ruled out by me on bonnet length, but only on the evidence of thumb #2. In the case of the bonnet being shorter, RME is ruled out, it ain't one, RMF has long bonnet. The additional white lamps (winkers?) seen in the Murder at the Vicarage example do seem to be there in the main picture. -- Last edit: 2020-08-17 19:27:10 |

Yes, those white additional lights are there and look to be significant in car having regular appearances in the series. |

Split rear bumper means before Sept 51. If it's the Marple Body In Library, it's a 1948 RMA, HFJ 899. |
