It looks like it has Citroen BX rear lights, so I'm guessing Citroen.

euhm, It's me again ;D
No, it's no Citroen.
And it is certainly not Chinees!! (the people who build it would be very upset 8))
Below, a photo of the production line, on the right side. (Workers probably on strike)

I think it's Italian. Pininfarina?

Yep! Bingo, it is Italian.

Had to do some googling (?) to find out some more. It's designed by Tom Tjaarda, born July 23, 1934, American automobile designer of Dutch origin.

The car was later build in California under a different name. But the origines of the car are in the (Italian) militairy. (bit confusing...) I believe that at some point it was even build in the pininfarina factory.

But, Still, I am waiting for a make and model!

An other (small) hint

Ok it's a Laforza. Originally the Rayton Fissore. It had Iveco truck axles and a five litre Ford v8. The car had a luxury Italian leather interior. Still a Range Rover rip off. The door handles are Fiat and the tailgate is from the Uno. Am I correct?
