Hi, I agree it looks like the Vixen pics..

BUT the manufacturers name I was given was ********.
If my memory serves me correctly, and it does sometimes, the owner told me it was a prototype and made in ******** by the manufacturer ********.

Cheers

Mr Baemish,

Neither of the names given to me were Vixen.
The 8 * = 8 letters, not 3..

That may well be what the final production manufacturer called it but this one was referred to me as a :-

******** Renault.

OK everyone....

I give in...
Just going out so here it is...

I should not keep you waiting any longer as I have just zoomed in on the original photo, and there is a badge which states VIXEN.

BUT This one was made by :-
DeLorean as in 'Back to the Future' etc..

So I must admit It is a Vixen, but the owner tells me it was made in Ireland by the Late John Delorean's company and was RENAULT driven, it was a prototype.
but never went into production in Ireland, but moved across the Atlantic.

That's it for a few days, as my picture library is almost exclusively IVECO and subsidiaries.

Have a good day in Oz, I hope its not too hot for you.
Average overnight temp in UK last night -11C.

Cheers

Ok so I was partially right with the Renault guess.

To me it looks like a LeSharo Renault with a Winnebago body. While the LeSharo Renault part would be most likely French the Winnebago body would be American.

However while parts of the body look correct for a Winnebago parts are also not. Plus Geoffb already mentioned Winnebago. :D And doesn't fit the clues! :-/

Good one RS! But maybe next time we should make a requirement that it has to be a vehicle that was/is in production! ::) But very unusual vehicle however! Great and rare find.

Nothing wrong with IVECO and subsidiaries Products! By the way was just over 40 today in Melbourne and think it is still over 30C at the moment (9:30pm at night)!
