Agree with jfs about vinyl and metallics on 2000E - they also had different grille from lesser Corsairs with thicker horizontal bars and no verticals, and very unusually for any Corsair, no side chrome strip. Plate looks UK (although for film date would be very early for reflective here) and maybe a tax disc, so Brits on their hols??
