That's a correct guess.....
......the designer and the coachbuilder is Serra.
I'll LOCK it for you one more time only to come up with the make of British car it's based on.

It looks as the Morgan Plus 4 re-bodied by Serra, built in 1955 and rebodied in 1956.

Yes, it looks a repost, but the picture is new and a lot better, I've seen that car in the Auto Retro exhibition last 7th of December in Barcelona, and took several pictures of it, this was the reason to recognize it immediately.

Yes, is correct to be merged, but in any case I believe to be worty with a point as the picture from the rear doesn't appears in the previous puzzle...

OK, that's really up to Barrett as it's his puzzle so we'll wait for him to respond then I'll merge it afterwards.

It's due to be merged but it's barrett's decision regarding the point hence have left it for him to deal with on his (eventual!) return.
If he doesn't return in the next 2 or 3 weeks I'll decide and sort it out, but that is a bit of a last resort and much prefer the puzzle owner to do it if possible.

It looks like Barrett has abandoned his puzzles again, although he does still log in regularly.
I'm therefore awarding luisps a point for this one and merging it.
