I can give you a clue that'll very much narrow down the possibilities - it's an enemy aircraft ! :shock:

I thought it was a clan crusader too. That is why I stopped, turned round and went back to photograph it, and when I put the reg in the DVLA site was surprised that it wasn't. I'll give you the rear end for a very decent attempt. Made in Norfolk I think.

It isn't a Clan Crusader. Rear view added in my previous post.

Reminds me also of (but don't think it is) the later Reliant Scimitar, SS1? SC1?

But the rear view puts me off - the Reliant doesn't have those - Montego? - rear light clusters as far as I remember

I'm right that I'm wrong :) about it's being a Reliant SS1
