This is a Manic GT but not the usual one. Prototype for the second generation / mid engined version.

That's exactly what it is!
I just need the second part of the question answered (when it dates from) so I can award the point and move this to Solved.
Locked for you to give me this final bit of info but please don't take longer than 24 hours!

That's it, yes.
Unfortunately nothing ever became of it and the Manic went under.
