Is this a BMW styled kit body on a Jaguar chasis?

I'm fairly sure this is a Reliant Scimitar-based kit car that was launched in 1999 as the Scimi Eclipse. Not much more was heard of it until 2003/04 when it was relaunched by Aero Motors of Stockport as the LMC Roadster. I understand, but cannot substantiate, that only two cars were ever made. Apparently, the workmanship was very high so it's a shame it languishes in obscurity.

Ah Mr Hezza - even such an obscure item could not pass you by. Yup, this is the LMC version. Full ad from 2003 here:
