That's correct, yes, so you've earned your point.
But just to complete the puzzle do you know who made the body? I't sn interesting fact which should be mentioned..

Bernard Lagier and Vincent Mausset built the Darnval. Each first letter of the surnames of the two constructors leads to the car's type, "L&M".  Mausset was also involved in the development of the Lenham P70, and later then in the Connew F1 adventure...

OK, you've mentioned who made the body so it's time to call this one solved.
The body was built by Lenham in the UK, hence the British connection I mentioned earlier in the thread.
Well done.
