No - and I don't think there were ever any Jaguars this small.  You 're in the right country though.

Now I see where you were coming from with your Jaguar comment.  There is however no Swallow or SS connection here.  Your answer does not mention the name of this particular car, but it does mention a related vehicle.

Looks like an MG, but which one?
L1 Magna Coupe?

Not an L1 but you're very close.  I'll give Oswald a week to come back with the right model designation, after that I'll accept answers from anyone.

The funny thing is that I'm pretty sure I know the picture.
It comes from Chris Harvey's MG-book, right?
I just can't find it...  ::)
But another guess then: F1 Magna Coupe.
