I'm betting the right Alexander Scott is the photographer who took this picture or something like that. Anyway, could Hella be the car part supplier?

No, internal combustion engine. Pretty conventional car, all in all. The thing they want you to get excited about is clearly visible in this picture.

Finally, a breakthrough!  :)

It's so obvious after knowing the correct direction, but it's still not that easy! Is the coating company from Europe?

It's the 1998 Brabham-Viking Cosworth Sports Racer!

Straight-4, 1600cc, 240hp with twin Weber carbs, cross flow head and dry sump Cosworth engine, Brabham Formula 2 suspension with adjustable shocks and springs, Girling alloy disc brakes, Hewland Mark VIII / IV 4-speed gearbox. It should be quite a nice ride! :D

Ok, so what was that about some Scott?

I keep looking at it, and the same name keeps coming back: White-Out.
