Don't think those are twin headlights. I think its a Marina; the one with a rectangular painted panel in the grill. Middle car could well be a P6 Rover

Second pic... P6, Simca Horizon (not an Allegro) and Cortina3

I think the twin headlight thing may have been a Datsun. In the second pic, the windscreen is too swept back to be a P6 (I thought Austin Princess at first but not so sure now) and I think the second car may have been a Fiat (Strada maybe?) but it's too curvy to be a Horizon i think?

Deffo twin headlights it's a Cortina mk3 2.0 GXL! Agree with the P6 & Renault & the other Cortina, but don't think that's an Horizon, looks like an Allegro to me.

Now I may be slightly biased, but at least there's room for a passenger in this one!

I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Renault 14 is one of the mystery cars, but it is a very distracting picture to look at

I still stand by it being an Allegro and not a Talbot Horizon.

Mind you both equally as bad as cars go!!

and worse then that I learned to drive in a Talbot Samba

That's a Xanthos Grand Prix, would need to be imported from the states.
