Maybe a Morgan Vanquish?
Everyone is still trying to figure out who bought the tooling and designs for the Vanquish. Now seems like it could have been Morgan.

The IPO said 'last generation' Vanquish, which to me sounds like the 2002 model, not the current Vanquish. You wouldn't use the words last generation to refer to the current Vanquish because there is no new Vanquish. When the IPO paperwork was developed, I'm pretty sure the Gaydon Vanquish was still in production thereby making the last generation reference correct.

It does state also the DBS that replaced the Vanquish S? Which could relate to the 2008-09 start of DBS. Not saying anything about a superleggera. You have like 6 years to find out!

I believe it is for the 2002 model, not the current vanquish. Dont believe the pictures you see, they're probably just poor knowledge from the writers.
That was based on discussions with my local AM dealers here over in England.

My wife an I did a tour of the Morgan factory last week and didn't see any Vanquish tooling laying around although I would imagine it would be located at a new body and chassis supplier if it goes through.
Great tour last week. Health and Safety has had it's impact as our last tour which must have been 12 years ago consisted them giving us a map, and told to stay on the painted path with no guide.
