Was its builder known for Mini based kit cars like Phoenix?
This company did not build kitcars, as far as I know.
Their best known production model is much more different than the puzzle picture this is why it is such mysterious.

Was this company a producer of other types of vehicles (i.e. not cars, but e.g. electric milk floats)?
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

I have it a Sinclair prototype without model name. If anyone has any ideas what this could actually be, please share.
Nicely done, Pal!

Where the heck did you find this  ???  ???  :o

Written in Estonian language:

QuoteJAAPAN. Ajalehest «Japan Times» võetud fotol on Tokio keskkonnakaitse tehnoloogiainstituudi leiutajate täiustatud motoroller. Kabiin kaitseb juhti vihma ja tuule eest ning parema teelpüsivuse saavutamiseks on motoroller varustatud lisaratastega. Kabiinist ja lisa-ratastest koosnev komplekt on juba saabunud müügile ja see sobib igale motorollerile.

Bump...

My source is anything, but reliable. I don't know for sure what is this car, but the subject of the puzzle is now changed according to the solution you found.

I think it is NOT Sinclair, but the Japanese car.
