No, it's a Ford Mustang V8 engine.

Rare bit of kit, and a lot of car for mid £20k, especially as it's a pre production prototype and not one of the customer cars. Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

Thanks Martin
On reflection I think it looks like a Hyundai scoop (sorry 'S' Coupe ) with FFRR guard vents.
But you're right....If it sells for mid 20k it would be a nice addition to someones' Thumbs Up collection !
