Ahhhh, I've just reviewed my 'special Triumphs' list an had a major lightbulb moment, as I've had this car listed for years without realising it.  It is the Dingbat 2+2 buggy from 1971, made by C&CC magazine !!  ::)

The lightbulb has shed light on this! Well done - finally solved :applause:

Cars & Car Conversions commissioned this Triumph Herald-based car as a kind of British beach buggy. It was christened Dingbat and a production run was envisaged, but I don't think any more were ever made.

Could be, but you can hardly call Dingbat a font... I mean it's got no A, no B, no C....
