I think that ID:909 is a Lloyd Arabella (also known as LP 900 and marketed under the Borgward brand between 1961-63).

Well it isn't. Molkerei means Dairy in German. Was racking my brains to find a German Austin Cambridge lookalike before DM logged on. As you can see, ran out of time!

DoubleMac got it right. ID:909 is a 1961 Lloyd Arabella.
It was the last car to carry Borgward's Lloyd brand. It had a four cylinder "boxer" engine with opposed twin cylinders. Total cubic capacity was 897 cc.

ID:910 looks like a relatively (depending on your whereabouts, I guess) rare variant of the BMC Farina range – the Australian Austin Freeway introduced in 1962 and also available in the traditional 4-door saloon body style.

ID:910 1962 Austin Freeway station wagon

Right! ID:910 is a 1962 Austin Freeway station wagon.

It had the Blue Streak straight-six engine. Developed in Australia, it was a 2,433 cc 6-cylinder extension of our venerable Landmaster/Ambassador BMC B OHV engine. The Blue Streak develops 80 bhp.

The Freeway's track and the wheelbase were larger than the British A60 "Farinas".

Pardon me for saying this. With a European member expert in old European cars, an American member expert in old American cars and a car afficionado who went to school in the UK in the late 1960s, I am left with precious few cars to show, more so because, unlike lesser forums, our rules mandate mass-produced production volume cars, not coach-builts, one-offs, prototypes or racing cars.
Anyway here is ID:911, a handsome station wagon with tailfins and whitewall tires. Should be relatively easy to identify.

Please identify year, make and modelname.

ID:911 seems to be a Dodge Sierra, and from this angle it certainly looks like a 1957.

Wouldn't it be nice to let the weaker fellow Team-BHPians, take some time, and have some fun, figuring out the cars too ?

I would recommend that some of us strong ones answer only 18 hours after posting. Or attempt only the seriously challenging questions.

That would be Opel Agila in Europe, I have had seen this in spain and got confused for an Wagon R later learnt thru Google.

Umm. It does'nt necessarily need to be an Agila. The UK Spec Wagon R had exactly the same features.

If you go by the placement of the side strips on the door and the wheelcaps (which are different on both the wheels though), then I think it's an Agila.

Hmm, could that be… a 1951 Ferrari 212 Inter by Vignale?
