I doubted about that, first because I had found it under the name "New Scota", second because I already had made a puzzle with a Scootacar who looked quite different.
However, I found a Rytecraft brochure with a car (not that one) bearing the same license plate CUW 231, and that settles it. Besides, in all the pictures of the Rytecraft that I've found, there seems to be numerous variations in the body design.
Notice that in the brochure the car is not called "Scootacar", just "Special". I could find no other trace of any "New Scota".

So, I've re-posted myself, you won a point, and I'll merge these.

Sorry, images were too big and I don't know how to edit just images.

Can anyone ID this micro car?  It was captured/impressed by the Germans in what seems to be a non combat area judging by the lack of military registration, headlamp mods etc.  It is from one of the military history sites where I do a lot of ID work on mostly ex civilian vehicles for photo collectors.
I think it it British judging from the style of tyres and wheels but a lot of time spent on micro car sites led nowhere.

Bill
Cheers
