I always think of these black paint wheel backgrounds as 1300 or 1500 for what I can remember of UK cars at the time, and not used on 1200. But no idea if that is definitely true??

This is the 1966 1200A when the 1200 returned as 'Spar-Käfer'

The answer above was meant for @dsl. If I'd put 'Here is...' maybe it wouldn't have been misunderstood.

The main is a 1966 (new wheels, not the 1967 rear end) but equipped with what seems to be chrome window surroundings and also the side molding is there (Grey on grey, but shiny). So no 1200, rather a 1300 (1500 arrived 1967), if those were UK names at the time.

Thanks - UK names were straightforward 1200, 1300 and 1500. But to turn this on its head, despite being a UK film, that's not UK footage - either US or somewhere pretending to be US.

The 1966 was called Sedan 1300 in US, wasn't it
