What about a classic one, like an MGB, Triumph, Austin Healey, Fiat 124 Spider or Datsun Roadster?

Vehicle name: Whitmore Sparrow
Years: 1965 to 1980
Country: United Kingdom
Class: sports car

Overview:
The Whitmore Sparrow is a small British sports car manufactured by the Whitmore motor company from 1965 to 1980. It was popular in the UK, the US, Australia and Italy and is considered an iconic classic car nowadays, though it was also known for its patchy build quality and reliability, especially in later models.
It is also a common base for V8 swaps, restomods and lightweight race builds

Design:
The design is a blend of the MGB and Datsun 2000 Fairlady Sports with a facelifted front based off the late model Fiat 124 Spider

Configurations:
Base: Mk1 (1965 -1969)
Early base model with either a 3 speed automatic or 4 speed manual, available as a roadster or coupe with a 1.8L inline 4, a cloth interior, chrome bumpers, steel wheels, a steel dashboard and drum brakes

Deluxe: Mk1 (1965 - 1969)
Early deluxe model with a leather interior, chrome bumpers, a wood dashboard and wire wheels

Sport: Mk1 (1965 - 1969)
Early sports model featuring a more powerful 4 cylinder, sport suspension, a wood steering wheel, side stripes, alloy wheels and a 4 speed overdrive manual transmission

C6/R6: Mk1 (1965 - 1969)
2.5L 6 cylinder model available as a roadster or coupe, with revised suspension, a modified body to accommodate the larger engine, leather seats, wire wheels and twin carburetors

Base: Mk2 (1970 - 1974)
Intermediate base model featuring updated gearboxes with revised ratios and synchromesh on all four gears, an updated rear axle, a 1.8L inline 4, a padded safety dashboard and a revised front grille

Deluxe: Mk2 (1970 -1974)
Deluxe Mk2 model with the same changes as the model above, leather seats and softer suspension

Sports: Mk2 (1970 -1974)
sports model, available as a roadster or coupe with mostly the same features as the Mk1 model with the same aforementioned Mk2 design updates

C6/R6: Mk2 (1970 - 1974)
2.5L 6 cylinder model with Mk2 design updates

GTC: (1973 - 1976)
3.5L V8 model, available as a 2+2 coupe only, with either chrome, or rubber bumpers on later models and a leather interior

Base: Mk3 (1975 -1980)
Late base model with rubber bumpers, a facelifted front, slightly higher suspension, improved cooling and a plastic dashboard

Deluxe: Mk3 (1975 - 1980)
Late deluxe model with the same changes mentioned above

Sport: Mk3 (1975 - 1980)
Late sports model with a roll bar, front fog lights and 70s side decals

Race: lightweight race roadster powered by a turbocharged race tuned 2.5L inline 6 with a stripped interior, race suspension, British Racing Green paint, gold racing stripes, roof delete, bumper delete, racing bucket seats, taped headlights and a roll cage

Rally: Mk2 roadster with a rally tuned I4, a classic rally livery, rally suspension with a reinforced rear axle, a limited slip differential, taped headlights, a partial roll cage, rally fog lights, bumper delete and aluminium wheels

V8: 4.5L Gavril V8 swapped Mk1 roadster with a roll cage, silver paint, Alder Powr Push rims, bumper delete, racing seats and semi slicks

Tuned: Mk2 coupe with an Ibishu 2.0 DOHC turbocharged I4 swap, lowered suspension, a front chin spoiler and a bolt on wide body kit

Restomod: Mk3 roadster with a 2.5L DOHC turbocharged F4 engine and interior from a Sunburst, LED lights, a 6 speed manual, disc brakes and air suspension

Beater: Mk3 GTC model that manages to embody every single stereotype about British cars. It has rusty body and chassis, a misfiring smoky V8 that is prone to overheating and breakdowns, constantly leaks oil and has warped brakes.

Banger Racer: fully stripped down Mk3 coupe with welded doors, a rusty body, blue spray paint featuring a #15 on the sides and a poorly painted Union Jack on the roof, a mesh windshield, welded suspension, a strapped down lawn chair for a driver’s seat, a reinforced fuel tank and hood/bonnet exit exhausts

Drag: Mk1 coupe with a 5.5L Gavril V8 engine, a 5 speed automatic drag transmission, drag slicks, a high downforce drag rear wing and front air dam, a wheelie bar, NOS, a parachute and a roll cage

RedSparrow: a 809 brake horsepower 6.5L V8 from the Bruckell Bastion Redtail, a limited slip differential and a 6 speed manual swapped into a Mk1 convertible body. It also features a custom built carbon fibre widebody kit, a roll cage, Bruckell Race wheels, semi slicks, a front splitter, racing bucket seats, hood/bonnet pins and dual side-exit exhausts
