It's called British Steam Car

It's British, it's a Steam car, but it's got another name. The point is yours if you give it in 48 hours.

It's called British Steam Car on the project's official website  ??? Well, I'll try to find what name do you mean.

Oops. Something went wrong when I checked.
Let's wait for an admin to merge these. I suppose that the customary rules say that faksta still deserves his point, right?

And I may have set it then - trouble is I can't be bothered to fight the site to post them in the "solved index" thread (but I do include the name in the title when they're solved).

Well, after all of this I think I know the name of the car from another puzzle. Though, to be said, from the text on their website I thought that Inspiration is a name of the team, not a car  ??? .

You do all right and it's enough, Allan. I think here that I searched for Inspiration and the search engine couldn't find it because you wrote, without spaces harmony:Inspiration
