A while ago I mentioned that Alison and I used to be a member of the Haynes Museum and we got to ride in some interesting cars.

Here's one. Any ideas what it is? I have fuzzed out the name on the number plate and badges:

Bottle of beer for the first correct guess.

It's a Bricklin SV-1. Around 3000 were built in Canada in the mid-70s. At one stage there was talk that Aston Martin were going to get involved in the project, but it never happened.

Well done Andrew! But, with your background, it wasn't really a challenge was it? Let me know the next time you're in Leicestershire and you can pick up the bottle of beer. laugh
