What's the make and model of this car?

Funny idea to graft an MG grille onto a Seven body, but the result is strangely appealing.

Quiller · May 27, 2008, 06:35:59 PM

It's certainly strange...

Epocar from San Marino?

Quiller · May 28, 2008, 12:50:40 PM

Not an Epocar

Pilgrim Bulldog?

No, the Bulldog is different:

I see what you mean: the Bulldog has an MG type body but not an MG grille, whereas the puzzle car has an MG grille (from an 1100 or 1300 I think) but not an MG type body. I was thinking it might be a Magenta 1100 or 1300, but the body shape doesn't look quite right.

The only thing those cars share is the grille, so no it's not a Magenta.

Kamouh Sun Car?

jimjarron · June 20, 2008, 12:28:37 AM

On second thoughts, perhaps a Siata Spring?

Quiller · June 20, 2008, 06:49:29 AM

No, neither a Sun Car nor indeed a Spring car

No activity for a month - so promoted to Prof level

That must be a plain Lotus Super Seven S4 with a new grill

Lotus Super Seven series 4 (1970-1973):

Hi, this is the Stromberg Furia.

Quiller · July 21, 2008, 09:20:25 AM

Well done, yes, it's the Stromberg Furia from Spain, which was based on the Hispano-Aleman Mallorca, which in turn was based on the Lotus 7 S4.
