I thought that was to easy ;) Would it also be to easy to say it's a Banham Conversion based on the (dreadfull) Austin Maestro?

Yep - I posted that one last year!

A clue it is not based on a British car, but it is a body swap conversion

Yes it is.

In my opinion a waste of a good MR-2  - why can't someone produce a decent RS200 replica ever?
