Not British, not Carlton related but Porsche based indeed, if I understand my source correctly.

Looks as though it could be a modified Belgian Apal

It's not from Belgium and I don't think there is an Apal connection, either.

It looks a bit like a car that was for sale in Germany, half a year ago. It was a 1967 unknown Volkswagen based kitcar, build and imported from Sweden.
