Nope. It is of course based on a Lotus, but I can't give a lock for that because it's obvious.
I'm having lots of trouble replying today. I keep getting the 30-second warning constantly.

I knew this couldn't last long among the Pros!
This car (shown here before it was painted with a grey Union Jack) is an electrified version of a Lotus Exige that Dale Vince bought on eBay and equipped with two 125 kW motors. It broke the UK land speed record for an electric car in 2012. (Which would be broken again the following year by the Drayson B12 69/EV, https://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2013-42/ecn-199-solved-drayson-b12-69ev/).
