Seems to be a Rover product of some sort.... was this one of the planned Austin-Healey revivals from the early 90s?

You're right about the Rover connection, but it's not an Austin-Healey.

MG DR2/PR5
"This proposal created by Design Research Associates under Roy Axe was targeted at the USA as MG's big return stateside in the lead-up to the launch of the mass-market MGF. It never made it beyond the running prototype stage."
