For one point: what car is that?

Only a correct, complete and specific answer will earn a point; tag-on's to other guesses will not. So, be specific and complete!

Since the rule of thumb is one question per turn, I'll answer "no" to the first question.

This was the Cherub made in New Zealand by Cliff Everson.

As already established it was Mini-based but with lots of parts made in Cliff's workshops.
He made other cars too..
