Let's eliminate the obvious.  Is it a Lotus Mk VI?

Yes

Tiger HS6 - based on a Triumph Herald / Spitfire and utilising the front axles, engine, gearbox, steering and instrument from the donor car. The rear axle is from a Ford Escort Mk2.

Dimensionally accurate copy with some slight enhancements to put through the IVA test and meet current regulations.
