Being Autopuzzles, this in obviously not an ADO16 but a very convincing lookalike, possibly a Lotas Princess, based on a Nissan Micra or Daihatsu Mira, popular in Japan in the mid-90s although there were several other makes.
The more I consider the nature of speed, the more mysterious I find it.

Probably Morris 1100 2-door saloon from 1962... But sounds all too easy...

Yes, this being AutoPuzzles there's no chance of it being quite so straightforward!

This is correct, yes, but don't know about the date.  It's a bit earlier I think.
Point is yours anyway.  Well done.

My source suggests the first time they were imported to Denmark is any numbers was January 63.  It suggests the 2 door was launched in spring 66.

That answers that then!
It seems they didn't have any LHD cars for the earlier advertising brochure!:
