Firstly, hi Alexandros, and welcome to APUG!
The camera is less important than the film type. All film cameras are basically a light-tight box with a lens and shutter on the front. As you progress into film photography you will come to understand that it is lenses and film that are the more important factors. For the time being stick with what you have, get used to its idiosyncracies.
Regarding your question:
The first picture I'm not sure, there are others here who are better informed on colour film in low light situations.
The second, looking at the grain, I would hazard a guess at either Ilford HP5+ 400 speed film, or Kodak Tri-X 400. Also the second photograph is most likely a photoshop construction, the car being added in later. As far as camera goes, pretty much any 35mm camera could have made the ingredients of that picture.

Thanks for the introduction buddy. I guess it's quite similiar to digital in that respect then. I spent more money on my lenses as opposed to the body. Thanks for the advice and I'll remember that when I start looking for an SLR.

Haha, yeah I'm not so interested in the subject more so the grain! I really love the grain. Thanks for the tips. Already just browsing I've heard a wee bit about this Tri-X so I'll go do some research on this bad boy and see what I find! Cheers mate.

Αλέξανδρε, that BW picture doesn't really tell us much. The only assumption we can make is that a grainy film was probably used, as Andy K said. Apart from that, the soft look could be a result of many things, which are not related with any film. And also keep in mind that a negative is only an intermediate stage, it's not a final image. The different paths someone can take affect the result. A hybrid workflow (scanning) can give very different output compared to an all analog print. Reproduction of an already printed image can also make a huge difference. Anyway, sorry for being somewhat vague and disheartening, but that's pretty much the truth...

The first photo, looks to me like some sort of tungsten film like 320T. But who knows? Why not email the photographer: Jamal Shabazz?
The second looks like a movie still. Is it? If so, what movie?

Whatever film that fisrt image is, it is white balance corrected. Either in the film or on thae camera (through using a filter) or later in printing or Photoshop. Daylight film in fuorescent light would have a green tint, obviously missing here. Please remember that one of the "disadvantages" of film is that it is white balanced to only one condition and you have to manage it in artificial light through either using the right temperature film or using a filter.
No idea what that second one is, but Tri-x of HP5 is just as probable, but the car does not have the same grain as the rest of the picture and is therefore a PS add in...K
