Another mystery car

[threespires]

It's a bit like a Falcon at the front. It seems to have gull wing doors.

looks like a modified Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger to me, the arches and rear fin look the same, size is about right

[threespires]

I agree, it does have an Alpine look to it, Daimler SP250 also but I don't think it's related to either of them.

[crostonian]

Looks too small to be an Alpine, is it Frogeye Sprite based?

[Blackpuddin]

My first thought was Fairthorpe but I can't find anything that looks like this.
Those wheel trims have a Rootes look about them. Also, they look like gullwing doors? Marcos was into them.

Could the windscreen be the rear window from a Rootes car?
If it is a gull wing door, and it looks to be so, then it would seem to be quite large going by the shutline to the front wing.
Does it have a one-piece front opening bonnet?

[sun.and.rain]

Very low at the front, it could be Imp-based. Maybe built for TV?

[Dand E Lion]

Can I see a 'power bulge' (stop sniggering at the back!) in the bonnet like a Triumph GT6 - looks like a Triumph colour

It looks like the offspring of a liason between a Sunbeam Alpine and a DB Panhard!

Looks like a Reliant Sabra to me

As long as they did a fastback version.

[Old Merc]

Maybe it's a one off Harrington Alpine ?

[nicanary]

Pretty sure it's French. Looks like a GT version of the Deutsch Bonnet.

The Autocars Sabra produced by Reliant for Autocars of Israel, rather than Reliant's own Sabre.
The Sabra body was based on a design by Ashley Laminates.

I take it back, now I look closer I see a ton of differences.

Unipower GT; Mini based. (now with a ? because I'm not so sure on the vent and the rear window)

There was a thread on here with someone claiming to have one in their garage, but pics never materialised.

It's not a Sabra. The picture of the bronze colored car Pothole posted is a Sabra.

[threespires]

Another view of that Sabra
