It looks like a modified mk2 MG Midget, I think it's an Ashley GT (but is that too obvious for this site)?

Yes, I'm afraid it is (too obvious, that is!)...

This new replica is very recent, made by Spridget specialists Hall's Garage in Lincolnshire. Only three of the original Dicks Jacobs coupe were ever made in the 1960s.
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

I don't think many of these have been made yet either...
Here's another picture (of the same one):
