Yes it is by Technical Studio. But I have a different model name for it which, I believe, is correct. Locked for 24 hours!

When first shown it was called the Little Seven, then it's name changed to Little RS Roadster, because Caterham probably weren't too happy i guess!

OK, in that case it must be Snake.  If it's not Snake, Seven or RS, then I give up!

Yes, but I think this puzzle was till locked to Djetset... One point to Djetset because he was too close and one point for You. The name I have really is Aico 15.

Thanks for the point Arunas.  I must admit that I have never heard of the Aico 15 name (though I guess this might be the Swiss market name), but this car is also normally known as the Little RS, as you will see on many websites and in the Techinical Studio's brochure.   

For the first few hours of the initial Press Day at the 2008 Paris Auto Show where this car was revealed, is had a 'Seven' licence plate mounted at the back, but by lunchtime it had disappeared and become Extrem, only to then be changed again to RS! 

I visited the Technical Studio 'factory' last year to see the Little 4 being built.  I will add some photos to the site when I can find them.
