Fiorano T48 Corsa Spyder
Yes. This car is captioned as an HDS (Hooper Design Services) which was the original designer and builder in 1991, but the kit has been manufactured by several people and it was a Fiorano from 2005. Same car.

This model has had quite a long and complex history. It also had various other names, with HDS (Hooper Design Services) later becoming Hooper Creative Design Services. It was also built and sold by DG Engineering, Reed Motor Engineering and Fiorano, with the model's name changed at various times, including Lindy, Warrior and Defender, as well as the T48 Cora Spyder.

Thanks for the input. I simply couldn't be bothered to type it all ! It is one of the better-looking of its type, if you can see past the camber of the Spitfire/GT6 rear suspension.

Another Fiorano; pretty much the same body I think..:
