A real brand but no longer a car manufacturer.

Alvis ?

..but is Alvis!

I'll let oko94 and PJ battle it out now (i.e. it's locked for them)

The 1979 Alvis TJ21 combined Aston Martin turbocharged power with William Towns styling!

Exactly!
It comes from a page on a well-known website which imagines how the UK motor industry might have developed under different circumstances (if we'd had any management that knew the first thing about cars for instance..).  I thought it would have been much easier to track down, but it's worth reading for the fun of it.  We can but imagine if they would ever have sold any had such a car been offered..

Well done and another point for PJ.

Even knowing what to look for it took a lot of googling to find out...that was in that well known site!
Nice puzzle!
