@Joe,
nope sorry, dont think its a peugeot, the grill is totally different.
it almost similiar to morris oxford

but the front grill is not the same, and the back side is also a bit different
@Pmac : i'm kinda curious wether it is Morris Oxfrd or not, because in my picture, the grill in front is a little bit crooked, and there is no metallic lining on the hood of the car. i do hope is Morris Oxford V, but i'm still not 100% sure

I'm more curious to know why you NEED to know this information. What makes this information so drastic that there is either a physical or psychological need?

It's definitely not that Peugeot - that picture is a lot different.
You are correct, it's the Morris Oxford (I was going to give you that link) - same front grill, your old beater is just damaged but they both have the same horizontal lines. The key is the crease on the side, both are the same the way the crease tapers down starting on the back door and into the quarter panel, and both have that odd vertical crease on the back door just in front of the handle.
At first glance I though the wiki car had rounded off tail fins instead of the pointy ones in the beater, but that's not the case, that impression is being caused by the car in the background.
Definitely the same car.
