Is this the Tipo 184 from Dowsetts? Mazda MX-5 running gear.
The more I consider the nature of speed, the more mysterious I find it.

It's a JNS special. One off car built by John Nash in Kent. The power unit and transmission are from a Renault 5 Gordini. Stying is very much Alfa Romeo GP. The information I got dates from 2020 so a recent build.

Correct identification, and one point to you. This is the Mk2, the Mk1 being a 3-wheeler which was an AP puzzle in 2015. My source gave the build date as 2010.
