I recognise those houses in the background - we've had another puzzle with a car in that setting, but I can't remember which. It's in the UK, anyway.

That other puzzle was a car being built for NZ clients. Is this car a British car for British use ?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

I'd be a bit surprised if they are the same houses because I doubt very much whether this car was ever in the UK, although there is always a chance it might have been.  It's not British.
