Isn't that 2CV-based?

Like a Lomax, it's 2CV-based, but it's not a Lomax!

Available as a kit or complete turn-key car, but I believe this is the only one to have been built to date (unsurprisingly!).

Was Fred Ferino involved in building it?

Well it's not currently on the road in the UK - as the MIB database doesn't have it on record.

It is British, but I fear Fred Ferino was busy doing others things the day this was built  :D

Most likely, yes. I don't think he built any vehicles that were sent overseas. But it does share one curious styling element with one of his "cars".

The DVLA website states that it is taxed until June, how do you access the MID database?

Useful for checking if the broker has bothered updating the database when you change providers...
