Here some of the pics again, bit with explanation about the junkyard history in UK (many topics are identical in other countries)

80s-90s UK scrapyard pics - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDc7NTtQY5I . Mostly unremarkable Brit porridge, but a few sad sights - rarest probably an Argenta (they were unicorns over here), also a Coventry factory plate Tagora, Jag XJ-C, a distant Imp and an unhealthy number of Alpines/Solaras including several special editions - no wonder there's hardly any left today.
At 2:40 a Polonez, at 3:10 a Renault 6 -also fully extinct- and at 3:21 a Datsun 240 Z.

The videos of "Fusion Kidd" are interesting.

This person makes a bunch of videos about the cars and trucks of various TV shows, many of which are sitcoms of the 1960's. Most of the info is based on the data from IMCDb, and it includes AI generated narratives from the stars of each show. So, despite the fact that Elizabeth Hartman and Dick York are both dead, you have voices that sound a lot like them describing the scenes and each related vehicles. Sally Field from "Gidget," and Marlo Thomas from "That Girl" both sound as young as they did when they were on their respected shows. I haven't seen all the videos, but I'm expecting them to be created the same way.

There was no German derivate, so it's indeed a British made Popular.
Quite rare with German registration (pre-1956 Amerikanisch Bayern 51 = Munich town), as it was never sold here.

^ didn't spot a Rootes-jewel, but this is Morris Oxford S2 with RHD and Brit plate. And there's a Ford Pop or its German equivalent?

Some rarities among the bad driving in Munich 1957 - Rootes crap just in the first scene?

Already 10 years old, but @walter, do you know this Bosnian Audi song?
https://youtu.be/WvFukrb0QGE?si=W0efl3slzk0zdTV6
@Lateef: but no song about the 32B-Passat behind.
