The car is not from Germany.

But the picture comes from an official sales leaflet of legendary "Auto Becker" car distributors from Düsseldorf.

This may be a hint...  ;)

Well, it is british.

Its engines were planned to be a 1.6 and a 2.0 turbo engine. (which maybe were from Rover/ MG...)

This is the Chris Field Design Mirach SC.  The designer Chris Field is the guy standing on the left.

LOCKED for you for 24h.

It is not the Mirach, but its predecessor.

Do you have another model name and maybe the name of the producing company for me?

Wow, this is a complex one, as this car has been known under various names, including the model name ECU, and branded as a Leopard, and then MayCorp. 

It is still offered in kit car form today as the Mirage Sports Cars SC.  I hope one of these are what you are locking for?
