Name this car ... with a twist

[Chris71]

Following a recent prang my insurance company asked me to show the exact location of the accident, so I thought I'd go on Google Maps to get them a link.

While I was there I noticed an interesting looking machine on Street View (unrelated to the crash, I hasten to add!)

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=52.070696,-0.24238...

Any idea what the yellow coupe is? At first glance I thought it might even be a Ferrari 275, but the bonnet doesn't appear long enough. The back end is wrong for an Eclat/Excel. Some sort of Lancia, maybe?

It's worse than that ... I've seriously considered buying an Excel in the past.

I'll drop off my badge and my gun on the way out.
