The car was shown at Frankfurt's IAA, but that doesn't mean it was built there.

Anyway – I didn't ask for the country where it was was built, so, it's another point for you, but note that I already confirmed your guess in reply#11.  The car was designed by the Scotsman John Kelly. More infos will follow, soon.

BTW: some here don't like the "roll eye smilie" – the "lifting eyebrow smilie" is not my favourite....

Apologize, but in fact you were right!
JK Design was located in Mayen/Germany. It was founded by James Kelly from Scotland. Kelly was a graduent design student of the Royal College of Art in London. After he had worked for Ford in Dunton and Cologne he was teacher at the famous Art Center College of Design near Geneve.

The car was equipped with a 2,0 liter Ford Cosworth engine with 200 HP. Theoretically is could run 265 km/h and did the 0-60 mph in under five seconds.

The Lacerta was shown on the Uniroyal stand at the IAA in 1989.
