The power of google.  very similar
Name: Tin Of Paint
Built by: Pete Farries
Built for: Berger
Year: Early 1970s
Engine: Triumph Tilado
This car was built for the 1973 Motorshow.
Apparently, it can still be found in Berger's Paint Factory in Dagenham, Essex.

It looks like the Turbo Terrific, driven by Peter Perfect in the Wacky Races, for those who are old enough to remember them

Good spot! It's virtually identical I'd say. Either Pete Farries made a prototype prior to the Berger car, or Berger don't have
the car in their paint factory and someone's nicked the lights!

It does have an odd sort of appeal... or mabe not.
What does he "Requied it" mean? Is it a case of "I've got to have it"? Gotta love the possibilities of "the
brakes have ceased"!

I saw this Triumph based "thing" at Brooklands new years day meet a couple of years back, it also turned up at the Uxbridge Auto show.

I think this is a Moss Monaco mentioned in the Q + A's on the ebay listing.
