All correct.
Being the convertible version though I thought this particular car had another name too; any idea what it might be?
Locked for your reply.

That's not what I was looking for, no. I believe that's just a translation of "Urbanina Roadster".
No, there were 3 different versions of the Urbanina and each had a different name. The first was the "Primavera" ("Spring") and this is the second one, referring to it being a convertible.
Read the article fully where you saw the 'Torpédo' name and I believe you'll find it!

Only 1 more Rookie ID to go.
Choose it carefully!

(Of course it could be on any board - it doesn't have to be the Rookies'...)
