Indeed, this one is TVR Vixen based and fitted with a new engine from another country.

I found another photo of this car in the internet, so there is a chance  ;)

He still is collecting cars but I guess this was the only vehicle he has (commisioned to?) built.

He does own a complete hall of cars, but It is not open to the public.

To help:
he began with BMW Isettas and is now more into Saab...
