Solved - MJW #213 - Pike Predator c.1986
« on: January 15, 2011, 01:12:08 PM »
I'm going to post a few more puzzles before I concentrate on a couple of group puzzles.

Who can name the make, model and what it was based on?
(apologies for the poor image)

Yes it is British and I presume it was offered in kit form.
Very little information or photos seem to be available on this car.

Is it a Warmouth?  It appears to have BMW aspects in it...

Czech?

Maybe it is a RAF Mk.I 16V / Cosworth, from the mid 1990īs?

Not Czech and not RAF.
This company was active for two or three years in the mid to late 1980s
