Anyone know what this is?

[doofer]

It's not a Kit-Car, it sadly never made it into production and was just a Concept car, I was quite surprised by who came up with it (Although some of the styling gives it away somewhat..) and even more surprised by when! I think it's ****ing gorgeous!

Information is very scarce about it and I can only find that single colour picture of it online, have fun guessing

Edit: Found some more B&W Pics will post later if anyone's interested

jaguar?? or maybe even tvr?? or even an aston??? definetely looks british though

 

[doofer]

No not a Jag, can see where you're coming from though with the E-Typeness-a-like-a-bit

This gives an idea of the size of it, and a bit of a clue to the age

Is the makers Badge Blue Red and White?

From other Production Models of the same year by the same manufacturer that I can find online I'll say no.

Looks a little like a stingray to be honest, who'd of thought vauxhall would have came up with a cool design!

What resulted from this concent, the Opel GT?

 

[doofer]

Yay! Grats mjt It is indeed a Vauxhall XVR, and it's from 1966 over 40Yrs old when all Vauxhall did was square shapes really. The Opel GT came a bit later and definitely stole the front cone and lights from it I think

Here's the Wiki page of the guy who pushed the design for it:
