It's a light alloy bodied two door sports saloon with a tuned 4,566cc engine and a special exhaust system to give it 25bhp over the standard R-Types.

The design incorporates a large wrap around windscreen, sharply sloped rear roofline and straight rear fender fins for greater stability in crosswinds.

The car has great details as well.

But never mind that - just looking at it is enough to convince even those least interested that cars can indeed be beautiful.
It's a stunner!
