I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Carnut

Yes and yes!
More information is still required for the point though so you can fight it out between you..

Profuse apologies.
I answered those questions without referring to my files and now that I've looked this up I see that in fact it's NOT a Buckler!  Very sorry.
The photo was taken at Shelsley Walsh, but it's back to the drawing board I'm afraid.

P.S. I just about always scrub out any puzzle car's registration, even if it seems completely innocuous.  That's ever since I left in what I thought was a nondescript registration in my early days of puzzling and it led the solver to the answer almost immediately!  To those in the know it can give not just the original date of registration (can be vital information if it's a re-bodied car) but also maybe the location of the builder.

No, you have to supply nearly all the info for the answer on the Pro's board to earn a lock!

Clearly you're absolutely right!
1 point well-earned.

With ultra-aerodynamic windscreen!  Must have been a full 10 m.p.h. slower with that...

This sound me alot and I have tried some times to find this one but never trying turner cars and indeed I was not able to found it without knowing that photo was takent at Shelsley Walsh and It could be a rebodied car, that gives me the clue.
