The Yellow coupe was puzzling me since that ad's been running, think I now have it and the turquoise one. Throwing it out to the PH collective for verification of them all.

Given it's a Spanish beer, maybe it is a Seat 131!

Looking at the rest of the ad, I think you're correct and it's some variant of the 131.
However, the tail lights don't look correct to me but that may just be a trick-of-the-light or distortion caused by the video.

I think the reflector is catching the light and shining.

How about the gold car, bottom right. I first glanced at it aand disregarded it as Fiesta mk1 but it's not, too big for a start.

I think it is a Fiesta. It just shows how small the even older cars were?

I also think it is a Fiesta but made to look relatively larger by distortion from the lens.

I thought it looked like a Renault 20 and would be about the right size.

It's a Fiesta. Renault 20 was 5 door only.

Great advert and it always makes me smile. My Dad had exactly the same 124 Sport Coupe (in pale yellow) when I was a child and the Fiat 131 is my all time favourite car.

Nah, it's a VW Scirocco. Tailgate is wrong for a Fiesta.

That's some impressive distortion, making it look longer than the Fiat in front.

Door mirror is in the wrong location for a Scirroco and most (all?) Mk1s only had one windscreen wiper and door handles are wrong.
