It is one of the ADO74 protoypes for the Supermini project of Bitish Leyland. It was running between 1972 and 1973 when the project was aborted. Im not sure about its designer because Harry Webster led the project, at least initially but Harris Mann apears in my source as responsible for most of its desings.

Well, now we don't have to worry about any of these variants being a future puzzle.

Carnut: should this be merged?

Yes, it's another of the ADO74 Metro proposals, so it's a point to Serra.
Please though, Serra, whilst it's fine to post more pictures of the actual puzzle car, don't post lots of other pictures of other proposals, as this compromises other puzzles.  I had at least one of those lined up as a future puzzle, and whilst I can still use it the fact that the pictures already appear here probably make it too easy for me to use now.

No thanks Otto.  Whilst it's another one of the proposals for the same car and uses the same BL code it is a completely different body so I think should remain a puzzle in its own right.  I'll just have to think of another heading!
