In that case it's probably not connected to Spectre either?

Well there is a connection I suppose, but it's tenuous in the extreme...

Perhaps the tenuous connection is the car was produced by one of the companies that acquired Dutton models?

Scorhill ME4
Title: Re: Q707
Post by: Quiller on October 07, 2011, 10:58:28 AM
It is indeed the Scorhill ME4!
I think it's only fair to award one point to both Djetset and pnegyesi - especially as this has been such a thorny one.
This was a prototype shown by Scorhill at the zenith of its powers, but never produced in series.

Most gracious Quiller as I was rather gazumped before I was able to post my next question of ME4!  Thanks.

Post by: pnegyesi on October 07, 2011, 11:16:19 AM
Sorry Djetset, when the name Scorhill appeared, I looked it up in the Georgano encyclopedia and got a bit over-excited.
