It's a Triumph-engined, Lister-chassis Phoenix, all right!

Another interesting car from the mind of Gordon Bedson.  Created as a prototype for Le Mans.

Not in colour though - it was purple. I think Egypt's racing authorities had to apply to the FIA to register purple as their national racing colour because they had never been allocated one. Not exactly a hotbed of motor sport activity.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
