Anyone have an ID on this thing? I was thinking Ginetta when I saw the episode, but on a closer look I can't find a Ginetta model that quite matches it. That "Z" logo on the seat also appears on the wheel center caps and the fender (I think). 
Any ideas?

My bet would be on a Ginetta with modified bodywork.

I see a lot of TVR 2500M there - the flip-forward hood/front end seems very much like the TVR.

wow 700kg, sounds like fun

I've salivated over the Zolfe Orange since it was first announced in the British motoring press. It was the brainchild of a former Caterham technical director.

It is a beautiful design, with hints of many cool sports cars, but it appears as a cohesive whole, not just a hodge-podge. To my eye, I see a ton of Lotus Elite in it. The lower body and wheel arches are different, but the greenhouse, windshield slope/curvature, and window shapes are a dead ringer for the fastback Elite.

Too bad there doesn't seem to be a way to get one Stateside!

I was going to send the link to a friend who likes cool quirky cars, but their site is essentially empty, like the business endeavor didn't last.
