Strictly speaking this one is a re-post as it appeared in of the old group puzzles, posted by someone who sadly retired from Autopuzzles.

I double-checked the name I have (taht's quite sure because I got picture and info from the original brochure of this car) and it don't appear searching on Autopuzzles.  ???
May you PM me the link to the puzzle?

This is basically the same car that had various different names during its life.
It started out as the Bohanna-Stables Diablo, using an Austin Maxi engine (in the middle) but by the time it reached production some 7 years later it was the AC 3000ME with a Ford V6 3-litre engine.
It was not successful and staggered to about 100 or 120 sales during its life and was eventually sold off to be made in Scotland as the puzzle car..  don't think it was any more successful in that guise either!
