I've just come across this site: http://www.imcdb.org/, which seems to offer a comprehensive catalogue of the appearances of cars, listed by make, in films. If you go to the complete listing, you will find that there are seven references to Jowetts -- one Bradford, four Javelins and two Jupiters. You will find pictures relating to each appearance. This was new to me; but it may not be to others -- I noted that Ed Nankivell has made a contribution.

I have mentioned this before (ages ago) but my second Javelin appears (very briefly) in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.
It is in the scene where the spymasters are leaving a 'safe' house (in the dark) and checking that they are not followed.
If you can't make out the car clearly, listen for the 'clunk' as he shuts the bonnet after pretending to 'fiddle' with something. Can only be a Javelin!
