It does look a little like a Sherpa except, they only did the small 200 size van in the early days, and that van is bigger like the later 300 series, and, the roof line was low on the early Sherpas, not semi-high like that one :?

I do think it is actually a CF1, but with a sliding passenger door :D

This pictures are from London's Soho 1959 - six years before Mk1 birth. But on the street we can see some (unknown for me) vans.
Do you know this cars?
