Double challenge from New Zealand: can you identify the film and the car?

• 

Classic car enthusiast Paul Elwell-Sutton from New Zealand has sent us a true puzzler. The still he found shows a lively scene – perhaps a demonstration, or maybe some kind of promotional parade? People appear to be playing music, and several small cars are visible. But… which film is this from? And more importantly for us car lovers: what kind of cars are these?

Unfortunately, the image quality is poor, so we can’t make out the text on signs or number plates. Paul is completely in the dark – and frankly, so are we. But this is where your expertise comes in.

So tell us: do you recognize the scene? Do you know the film – or better yet, the cars parading down the street? Drop us a comment!
