Part of your discription (things such as the Honda and BMW connections) sounds like you are trying to describe Rover. But they were around for many many years before 1976, both independantly and as part of BL, Austin-Rover and MG-Rover... They formed an alliance with Honda in 1979, then became part of BMW after that.... Some of my facts may be a little off, so you might want to check it out.

The middle picture you posted has me a bit bewildered. It looks to me like a mid-80's era Reliant Scimitar.

With the "nose" in the down position that looks very much like an earlier Toyota Supra from the front!!! I know it's not, but talk about a styling rip-off!
