Ross?

Nah, brawn cocktail, obviously.

And surely you can come up with a better guess @Jenkins

This one should be a coffee and cake run for you

Not much room to put the coffee & cake but: Aston Martin DBR1.

However I'll take any race car from a weird little 500cc jobbie

To a modern Toyota sportscar at the moment

Nice try... You're sort of on the right track, but wrong era and wrong colour.

 

[Reynard]

Ross?

Mmmmm, are you playing? If so...

The diddy little Reynard-sized car aside, you've got the idea. But think bookends with the two suggestions... What comes in between?

So we're looking at Ford GT40 era?

A bit more modern than that. Although I'll concede that the GT40 is a very fine-looking race car

The food-related comments are a little clue.

The early Renault turbo F1 cars were known as teapots is the nearest, although weren't Williams sponsored by Lavazzi (coffee suppliers)?
Other than that you'd better post a pic as I'm a bit tired and may have had a 🍺.

I had thought about doing the cassette on the MTB rear wheel, but rotational symmetry isn't quite so obvious...

Sort of calls to mind Pennsylvania Dutch barn decorations, popularly refrred to as hex signs. The birds are called distelfinks.
