What is it?

A reader has sent us this picture, of a car seen near Tewkesbury in recent months. In fact, four different versions have been seen, all with FLK registrations (London). One had grilles in the boot, as if rear-engined, another had a transverse silencer beneath its rear bumper, and that shown had the engine in front. The only name, on the boot, is Falago, the tyres are Pirelli, the speedometer like that on a Ford Zodiac with trip reset protruding from the glass, and there is H.M.V. radio, floor gear-lever and inboard disc brakes at the back. The driver, when questioned, said he was testing a foreign prototype. The make on the licence had been taped over!
