I haven't got a picture because I've only seen it in a TV commercial. It's the one for the Renault Clio that is billed as being 'perfect everywhere'.

The ad features a number of cars and their more practical uses in very impractical settings. Thus you've got a hummer that is 'perfect for crossing the alps' stuck in a town centre.

The car I can't identify is the sports car that is 'perfect for Le Mans'.

Possibly a butchered Lotus Esprit?

I don't think it's a real car to be honest, just a caricature of a supercar

This is the ad:

Not sure what it is as I'm pretty sure it is something disguised. The Hummer in the previous section is definitely disguised although still easy enough to recognise

Just looked at it a little harder and I'm pretty certain that it is a De Tomaso Pantera with some disguise

That hummer looks more like the Lambo 4x4 and the sportscar looks like a lotus that has crashed into halfords.

It's similar to the Lambo LM-002 but I am sure it is a Hummer H1.

Look at the door window, the quarterlight behind and then the louvered triangle on the Pantera. Match the sportscar pretty well imo

Its not the Pantera the small window behind the front door is definitely four sided the pantera is a triangle. Also the swage(?) line down the door isnt on the pantera. It does look more like the lotus.

Defo not a "factory" car, its a mock up or a sh1te kit car, not a Lotus either look at the front quarter light and door mirror position.

Heavily modded Venturi judging by windowline and air intake on flank.
