The were very similar. I think the Dart was on a slightly stretched chassis:

I see three readily identifiable cars in this scene, and enough of others to take a stab.>

Yep, that's the Type 34 K-G (aka VW 1600) which was never exported to the US. I'm not sure why except that they sold every Type 1 they could make.
 
It did look a little like a BMW 1600/2002 from behind but like the Bimmers it was heavily influenced by the Corvair>
 

 
I think there's another Jag MkII parked in front of the one that's behind the van.
