If you want to cheat, you can easily find it via Google Image Search, 1st page.

AGM WLR
I have a pic of the AGM WLR taken on the same lawn aside the same wall...but this is not an AGM and this pic cames from the (?) maker's website...the relation between the 2 is not reported (but can't be denied!).

Interesting....I guess Mr Vince took an AGM or the puzzle car to develop his car....but neither this is the name I have for it...

Locked for you both.

Well, Peter Vince is on the locostbuilders website describing his SAAB powered AGM WLR build - so I guess that clears up part of the question.

The only other name I have found is Whitehead Le Mans Roadster - but that is the cars full name and abbreviated to WLR.

Is the replica of a replica still in production?

In their website there is not a word about AGM or WLR or Peter Vince.
This is the AGM WLR in the same location.
I don't know if they are just assemblers or they modify slightly the WLR to call it their own car.
They have also another car in their line-up.

Well it is right hand drive - and not uk (A search of the uk manufacturers draws a blank) - so that leaves either Japan (where I don't think kits are allowed) or one of the southern continents.

Australia?

OK then it is an Arrow Sportscars Raptor.

They have got to be an agent of WLR - although neither companies web site acknowledges this....
