The cars at 00:16 and again at 00:20 are both Rover 2000 models.
"M/S as Daaf passes." - that should read DAF Daffodil.
"Clark and Porter's" - this is Roger Clark and JIm Porter.
"A Renault speeds past" - it's a Renault R8 Gordini.
"C/U Ann Hall wiping her face with tissue, she is the Rover 2000's navigator" - no, this is Anne Hall's navigator, Pat Spencer.
