It's the Ascender built by Silcoates prep school for the BP ‘Buildacar' competitions under the supervision of Les Brown. It survives, too.

Well done Oswald, I'm loving your fine detective work.  A well-deserved point to you.

Any more views of it?  Sorry PJ, I don't have any other images of this car, but Oswald might have(?).

I do!
But I'm saving the best one for my next book…
The Mini Mouse, shown next to it here and using 125cc Honda Spacey scooter power, was stolen back in the late 1990s by the way...
