Nice, old Belgian pictures
The "Opel" looks more like a Vauxhall Viva (as in that time it was sold here)

I didn't know Vauxhall was ever sold as Vauxhall here. Vauxhall Viva is no doubt correct though. The Kadett model in the seventies was certainly Opel... But then the car park in Belgium was more diverse than in other countries.
This film was shot on the streets of Antwerp, so I could have added a lot more cars, but I don't see much point in adding a glimpse of a parked Renault 4...

The ambulance is an Opel Blitz (it says so on the grille), maybe early post-war (but I'm not familiar with the film). The Dutch-registered VW is a 411 (Typ 4), but the quad headlights seem unusual.

It's not supposed to be post-war, since it's a flashback to WW-II, but it's possible of course they used an anachronistic car.

I had my doubts about the chrome beading round the grille, is all; and looking at it again I think those mirrors are postwar, too

Thanks. I've added the [done] myself.
You messed up the title though. 'Der' would be German not Dutch, and 'Stiller'.

Whoops, my head's not on straight today

How do you change the thread title? It keeps on giving me errors.
