I’m thinking something European, mid-late 1970s. Maybe a BMW 5  series?

No I think it might be something domestic (for him). None of the BMWs or Mercs I know of that era had that upstep in the beltline before the B pillar.

 A Volvo. Like a 144.

1980 Escort Mk2 looks right, except that it was the Euro version and doesn’t have the bump on the front door beltline as WitL pointed out.

Ha....I didn’t know he was English.  Yeah that’s probably it.

Yeah I think it’s the same mk2 Escort. I think the bump in the front door is just a distortion in the video, you can see the same parallel distortion to the right in the seat fabric

I think the bump is just a distortion in the video because it can be seen in the seat fabric to the right

I think you are right. And as suggested below, that allows the possibility of the Ford Escort.
