Quite a good looking car, a bit Datsun 280Z/early TVR looks, based around Ford Cortina iirc. Probably been out of production 20 years by now, fairly
sure they started early 80's.
That is a car that could be used year round if sorted, I reckon.
Edited to add, just found

Looks pretty cool, wonder if it'd be worth updating it and restarting the company?

There is one just up the road from me that just sits outside a house and I dont think its moved in years, I always think that it looks rather nice
everytime I go past, Seems a shame for it not to be used but it never looks like its been neglected it just doenst seem to ever move!

Always was a good looking car.
If they were made today, I would consider one.
Wonder where the moulds are?

I used to have one red one in my archive, it used to leak in water around the tail gate fitted new rubbers etc and still found its way in. Very heavy
and not that quick with a 2.0 pinto, should stick a V8 in it, they look a bit like an e type.

Think about it, think about it again and then do it.
