Looks like a variation on a De Tomaso Pantera / Mangusta to me. Dx

Maserati? Or an Austin Hereford replacement which the fools at Longbridge never built?
So what are these? (and they're not from Longbridge)

Had the time do some research now:
Entering the 1970s, Triumph decided on a two-pronged attack on the sports car market: Bullet was the TR6 replacement incorporating, like the Stag, a roll-over bar and T-bar. Lynx was the closed coupé, to replace the GT6. Like all Triumphs since the Herald in 1959 (and excluding the Karmann-designed TR6), both cars were styled by Michelotti.
so Bullet on the left - Lynx on the right

Ok, Ok, Judging by some postings there is a tad of frustration in the air The car in the photo is an Avon Standard Special or as Standard would prefer, a Standard Avon Special circa 1930/32. (I'm awaiting history from owner). Chris, I did not see your posting. Well done. Due to my oversight I will personally buy you a barrel at the DfH party at LM next year.Leftie Not a word of "Well done Kpy, it is an Avon on a Standard chassis". Not sure I want to play any more (sulks)......................

Well steady on, a pint will do! Anyway, perhaps it's my turn now. What with it being holiday time, what's this?

No, just a reference to the luggage. The photo is from a film, though.

No, just a reference to the luggage. The photo is from a film, though. Car colour and Reg No. look like an RAF Staff Car of late 40's early 50's. The shiney bits are confusing though as they should not be chromed. So could be a Vauxhall. Not too sure on the film.
