It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

Sure is.  And here's a bit more about it:
Quote
The Vauxhall SRV from 1974 was a wedge-shaped concept standing just 41" tall.  The radical four seat Vauxhall SRV could change its aerodynamic profile using an adjustable aerofoil located in the nose section. The SRV also had electrically adjusted suspension leveling at the rear, and the car could redistribute fuel to different tanks to adjust handling.  Inside the SRV concept, fixed seats were coupled with an adjustable steering wheel and pedals, while the instruments were fixed to a pod hinged to the drivers door.

When Vauxhall displayed this car at Goodwood in 2009, it was labeled as being from 1970.

The car in its present state, in rather poor shape and stucked away in a garage near Luton. What a shame....
