Triumph TR 7 prototype
Surprisingly, no (or not so surprising since this is AutoPuzzles and that would be just a bit too easy!)
Triumph project Broadside?
Experts?
Triumph Bullet
That's a picture of the same car.
But the thing is, that's not a picture of the Triumph Bullet!
This is the Triumph Bullet:

The design in that previous puzzle was one version of the Triumph Bullet. Here's another:
As for the car in this puzzle, I have different sources that refer to it either as another version of the Bullet, a version of the MG Boxer, or a version of the MG Magma. The lettering on the back could not read "Boxer" or "Magma," which is why I went with the third Bullet option. I guess I will continue to look...
Your picture of the Bullet is almost, but not quite, the same car as Djetset's puzzle Bullet.
You're on the right track though with your MG thoughts.
I found it, but only as an unnamed TR7-based MG design proposal by Harris Mann (similar to the MG Boxer and MG Magna). Interestingly, the script on the rear says "TRIUMPH."
Yes, that's it!
It must have started out life as a Triumph, possibly another version of the Bullet, but it seems it became a possible replacement for the MGB. Looks far too much like the TR7 to be seriously considered as another production model to me; they might just as well have stuck and MG badge on the TR7 and called it a new car, just like in their older badge-engineering days!
