Although it looks quite like a Burlington (plus another certain well-known English sports car!), I'm afraid its not one of those.

Well it isn’t a LCD / Tiger / GCS hawke.

The car in the background suggests a date of the 1980s.

It is from the late 1980s/early 90s, but it's none of the Hawkes mentioned.

I've seen those wheels somewhere, but can't recall where.  Is it Peugeot-based by any chance?

Yes, that's the one, marketed by Conekt. Another point to you.
