Looks British to me. Repainted, who knows what it could be, MKM, Bob Jackson, Carlton (less likely) Holdsworth…

The range of bike sizes in the adverts is all over the map. I really think finding the correct size range is the first thing.
Then noting that sellers often have no clue as to the bikes true measurements.
