For a point, please provide the make and model name of this vehicle, and sorry for the poor photo quality.

This is the "Wind-Up", made by Perry Watkins. The smallest car of the world, with a bodywork from a kiddy toy car, the “Postman Pat” truck. With its 150cc- single-cylinder engine the road registered car reaches up to 40 mph. Its name origins from the giant wind-up key Mr. Watkins attached to the rear of the vehicle.

I will happily award you a point for your ‘Wind Up’ answer as that is what Perry Watkins, the car’s modifier, named it.

This vehicle does have a ‘real’ make and model name though, so I will keep this Puzzle open to all Experts and Rookies to provide those for another point.

I believe it's based around a 150cc Shanghai Shenke quad bike
