Default identify this model series?

Hi, I saw this at a salvage yard last weekend. I quickly snapped this one photo over the fence as they were closed. Can anyone identify this model? Series 2? Series 3? Any detail would be greatly appreciated as I may make an offer.
noticed the steering on the left side.

Based on the doors, it's a series one.

Thanks, and with the left side steering I could probably guess its an import from Europe not the UK. It's in canada btw. forgot to mention.

It looks like a 86' inch series 1 from around 1956 , it should have a 2.25 petrol engine with a 4 speed gearbox ..
