I'm going to take a long shot and say its an old old Datsun Cedric. The headlight design looks very American but those from the stateside in the 60s would have puked at the front panel. Its bland enough to be British or Japanese but British were never this adventurous.

BTW who owns this one? any idea?

This is up for sale on a site, I wanted people to scratch their heads on this one. Guy was asking too much for a vehicle in bad condition, needing a lot of work to be done. We've had this on the trivia once I think, dont know if there is only one example or many in the country, but seems to have been popular in other SE Asian countries.

I'm still sticking to my Datsun/Nissan/Prince hunch. This design is definitely theirs. The Junior truck perhaps?

Bingo sir, thats the vehicle.

Some pics show it as a much lower model, but the inside seems to have a 2nd gear.

Good project for sosmeone.

That's a good guess since the rear lights somewhat resemble the mid 90's V40 but no. This is not European - let me post a higher-res pic

Ok so closest I came to was the Primera wagon. Observations were the rear antenna and the rear doors. Most of the Jap wagons didn't have that kind of squarish rear doors and the 3 quarter glass.

Well it is indeed Japanese - but not from either manufacturers. Neither the sedan nor the wagon from the generation of this car in question was that common in SL. But it's predecessors Sedan variant is quite popular here. 

 

I couldn't find a local pic of the Wagon but here's a local pic of it's sedan counterpart

Wow. Did we ever have Toyota buses like these in SL? I wonder if they still exist.
