Just an ordinary day in Watford

It could well be that this was an ordinary Thursday — just like today. Only it was about 100 years ago. We see some beautiful early cars driving through the streets of Watford, in the county of Hertfordshire in Britain. Can you name the makes of the cars we see and perhaps tell us more about them?

First car - no idea, second car an Amilcar, parked car a two cylinder Jowett, and yes a Bugatti (Type 40?) to the left.
First car - at first I thought Sunbeam, but the radiator is wrong and it seems to have wooden wheels which suggests American.

Unfortunately I can't recognize the cars but it is a nice movie made in 1926. Find the street scene very busy for a Thursday and the people are well dressed I think it was not a normal working day rather a Saturday with the people going to the go to market. About 100 years ago and I see men pushing the pram and a cargo bike and also look at that little boy on his tricycle.

Is that a very fleeting glimpse of a Bugatti two seater at around 19 seconds in? To the left of the crowd on the pavement.

The second car driving, Sports model with a split windshield, perhaps a French Salmson? Parked behind it a two-stroke Jowett. The third car driving is a Ford Model T with commercialvan body

The pretty French car looks quite like e a Seneschal...that would be a rare car over here......not as rare as a two-stroke Jowett though!!
