This model of car has also used the names Marlin, Romero, and Mille Miglia.  I will find more.

The design originated in 1979 with Paul Moorhouse, who was an engineer with Rolls-Royce.

The point is to find the location where this car is manufactured.

Well as I am fairly sure this can't be a YKC product. I will offer this location to be eliminated - the company is defunct though.

Perhaps I should have said where it's marketed under its recent name.
