It's not a kit, Suka, but you may still know it
no longer manufacturing, didn't run for very long at all and YET a well known famous name on the racing circuit. Miek Hawthorn, Roy Salvadori, Stirling Moss all competed in their cars - Bernie Ecclsetone even raced one

getting hard to get more hints on this one

OK, here's a different one.

There's a car paint colour called after it - and it's one of the 'classic' british racing green familty.

Well done, yes, Connaught. ( and the rally MGB is painted in Connaight Green )

It wasn't GP.
Sorry, but you should know by now that my clues have a twist.

Mike Hawthorn drove a Connaught at Turnberry in Scotland in 1952 - and won

next ..........
