For what it's worth, I spent a good while a couple of days ago looking at the badge, and I did think it look like "Turin", but didn't get anywhere with googling that either!

I don't know about that; it's not the same obviously, but that's not what GV is saying. The styling cues are similar; the main demerits are the absence of the heavy shoulder/swage-line/slab-sidedness(although both designs carry their differing side profiles from front to rear with a pronounced waist), the lack of C pillar detail, and the proportion of front wheels to wheel arch top.

Glad to hear we have a resolution. Now bearing in mind what was said above about the car sitting outside the owners house since he built it, I had to have another look at this comment: lamjon said: Ive seen this car many years ago in a field i think in Sussex whe l went to buy a Ferrari 250 GTE, i dont know what it is but deffinatly ltalian made bumpers no question.
