Ergo, it's a '90. Clearly a gasser, because no diesel intakes cuts on the right front fender. UK car because it has the orange side marker light on the fender, which all UK cars had to have.

The open trunk reveals the warning triangle in place.

The car was probably stolen somewhere to be used in this caper.
Sherlock Holmes strikes again!
