I'm actually not into scale models but for once I will make an exception. Let the hunt begin.
Apparently one got sold recently via:
https://veiling.catawiki.be/kavels/21277383-hv-mod-1-43-monteverdi-sierra-made-in-england
It was offered by the guy/company who bought the Monteverdi collection from the museum in Binningen (in fact I do happen to know him). So it would have been cool to have bought this one from the official collection, but unfortunately it's sold already for € 26,- (only just a few weeks ago, sigh!). In case the buyer reads this blog and want to resell it, I'm interested to hear from you. Or if someone has one I'm all ears.
Supporting auction information and photo's:
Monteverdi Collection
This auction sells models from the modelcar collection of motorvehicle pioneer and lover Peter Monteverdi! His collection consists of more than 10.000 models! He collected mostly 1:43 models, but also has some other varying scales. The collection varies from different manufacturers, Marques and more. He collected them throughout his career, from the 1950's until the 1990's. Most models date from this time period. This collection was exposed for more than 40 years in the Monteverdi museum in Basel,Switzerland. When you are buying a piece from this collection, you are buying a piece of history!

I have tried to find out more about the manufacturer HV Models, but I got stuck as there is little to no information available about them.
3-1-2019: Update, I found these additional details about this model car
