Very good mekubb.
How did you manage to find that one, especially as the answers given by SACO were not entirely accurate?
Although of course this is based on a British car it was built by Cliff Byfield in Australia, so is technically an Australian car on a British base rather than a British car.
As far as I am aware there is just one single picture of it (this one) on the Internet (well, 2 now as it's on the AP site).

Sometimes you have to be lucky... I was looking for another car and suddenly this car appeared and I thought : I have seen this before somewhere... Then I checked Autopuzzles and saw the same picture to my surprise ! Otherwise I would most probably not have been able to come up with the answer !
