Yes, British, but I'm afraid this doesn't narrow so much the research...

Ah, that is where my confusion came from the Eldon became the razor before doing the usual kit car trick of vanishing. I used to know the owner of the razor as he was an ex-tiger owner.

The Eldon was the original, becoming the Razor in later life. 

The Eldon was made in the next village to my home in rural Oxfordshire.  The company now specialised in juke boxes! 

Kit car guru Peter Filby briefly owned (and attempted to sell!) the Razor.
