It looks a bit like a Lotus 7 but that's probably not one, right?  :)

You are correct, it's not a Lotus. There have probably been hundreds of Lotus 7 copies over the years, and this is one of them. It competed in the same class of racing.

I wonder which has more copies - the Lotus 7 or the Cobra?

Is this one the Locost?

Not the Locost. It would assist if you found out the country of origin.

And you are quite correct. It's Welsor No.1 - the first of many successful sports cars from that marque.
