And that windscreen was clearly designed by someone with an excellent grasp of aerodynamics...!

Yes indeed, it's the SK Roadster from 1985.
It was a British kit car designed by Steve Blakey and Kim Ford working as SK Automotive of Langdon Hills, Essex and was based on an MGB chassis and drivetrain, with a glass fibre body based on - as Otto says, an Allard at the front and a Morgan at the rear!

Few were made and it petered out after a short time.

my quote suggested the Allard/Morgan split personality, Otto gets the credit for the "duck" reference.
That would be a Mallard right? ;D

Of course!  My apologies!  Almost worth a point!
