Likely to be a Superformance car.

Thanks all, that does seem likely and rather like that replica, never seen one before.

Any ideas what the yellow logo on the side is?

Looks like a prancing moosse sticker ,but why that would be stuck on one of these is a mystery , unless owner has Swedish connections .

Post below makes more sense ,I couldn't blow up the pic enough to see it properly .

Excuses excuses .

Blakeney - known in Norfolk as Chelsea-by-the-Sea.

The flatter bonnet suggests to me that could be a Factory Five replica of a Daytona.

Yep, a Superformance Daytona Coupe , this is probably if RHD one of those 2 for sale lately?
a Superformance you can recognize at the side windows which can go up and down, also the side intake-ish things behind the side window and the more rounded rear window.

most factory five have fixed side windows and a flatter rear window and yes lighter but less nicely build or maybe you can say, more race then street, while the Superformance is more dressed.

those 2 for sale in the UK are RHD (rare) and cheap (for a Superformance)

Beautiful place.

Whilst you’re there pop into St Nicholas’ Church and you can pay your respects at the grave of 2-time LM winner, “Bentley Boy” Tim Birkin.

Thanks for all the info. Can confirm definitively it is a 2006 Superperformance as my friend saw it again and checked the plate with DVLA. These replicas are new to me, so glad to learn.
