Ban Seng is a specialty model manufacturer that build very limited production models (so far, in 1:43 scale) of prototype cars.  This is their rendition of the 1984 Honda HP-X - designed by Pininfarina.

The presentation box has a photo of the actual concept car with a short description on the back.  The finish quality is typical of low volume resin kits - the interior is impeccably detailed but the tires and wheels are a bit of a let down as then are just painted spokes and unicast tires.

Nevertheless, this is a rare model since it is no longer in production and the moulds are destroyed.
