I can't wait to restart this thread when I chanced upon this car. Honestly I don't even know this model ever exist in the manufacturer lineup.

Try not to Google, just let your imagination runs wild and see if you can just get the brand right!

A BL Metro trying to look like an MG Metro Turbo but failed.

Many moons ago I almost bought a pre-loved red one (MG Metro, non-turbo), still remember the VRN EX68, but got beaten to the deal by the friend whom i brought along to see the car....😂

It runs a 1275cc A-series OHV engine with 72bhp and a 4-speed GB under the engine. 0-100 in 10.9 sec. Basically a bigger Mini.

It looked exactly like this:

It was a very important car for BL at that time. Launched in 1980, it was the car the entire country was waiting for, to save the ailing British motor industry. It succeed to a certain extent, selling more than 1 mil cars in UK alone. Lady Diana was famously seen driving one before she married Prince Charles. It was spacious and comfortable, economical, and had an advance Hydragas suspension. However it still ran the same drivetrain from the Mini (ancient A-series engine, with 4-speed GB in the sump).

It later morphed into the Rover 100 in the 1990s and died in 1998 when it couldn't pass crash tests anymore.

Watch this laughable ad:

The rim look like from Alfa Romeo. Another collaboration between AR and Nissan or was it Suzuki? 

Good try but it is not related to any of the 3 brands you have mentioned.

Bingo! There was this badge on the Metro... And only a total of 26 units were built (23 RHD, 3 LHD).

The Frazer-Tickford Metro was a product of collaboration between Aston Martin and British Leyland, built by Tickford during its stint under David Brown's Aston. Using a Metro as the base, the British luxury brand injected several niceties into the cabin, including leather and Alcantara, plus a number of conveniences like a sunroof, cruise control, stereo, and electronic controls.

Outside, the Frazer-Tickford Metro hatchback features full-on body kits for a more aggressive stance. And yes, it has the winged emblem and more importantly, an Aston Martin-tuned 1.3-liter engine that puts out 80 horsepower.
