From Morocco ?

Right Continent; wrong country,

guido66 · June 04, 2010, 03:13:29 AM

from Algeria?

Djetset · June 04, 2010, 04:11:15 AM

Not 100% clear which African-based country this is from, but I know it's not Morocco. So, we now know it's African, but do you know what it's name is?

Izis from Tunisia

It looks like the Renault 4 Bandama, made by the Renault subsidiary in Ivory Coast ; but I can see some differences with my pic, so I am not sure...

Djetset · July 05, 2010, 02:17:54 PM

Close, but not that.

Oguerrerob · July 05, 2010, 05:01:17 PM

That NO is for Tunisia and Ivory Coast?

Djetset · July 06, 2010, 02:20:22 PM

I believe it's no to both.

Oguerrerob · July 09, 2010, 04:24:38 PM

IDF from Israel?

Djetset · July 19, 2010, 03:00:51 PM

No.

woodinsight · August 13, 2010, 04:22:34 PM

From Senegal?

Djetset · August 14, 2010, 03:58:39 AM

As I've mentioned before, I know it is African, but not 100% certain from which country, so I don't know if it's from Senegal. Sorry!

Oguerrerob · September 09, 2010, 07:29:33 PM

Veep?

Djetset · September 10, 2010, 02:29:22 AM

No.

Jirah from RSA

No, but please do keep on trying.

Accidentaly I found an advert of it in a 2001 issue of the French magazine 'Gazoline'. It says:
"I'm clled Bandana, I was born in Africa in 1975, I'm despararely looking for my origins and all other info..."

Djetset · September 13, 2010, 07:15:24 AM

At long last, we have a winner! A lucky find DynaMike, as I took this car from an old advert in a French magazine. Here's that ad and another picture of it.

Oguerrerob · September 13, 2010, 08:20:49 AM

Just to be fair, franck.kegelart mentioned Bandama before.

Djetset · September 13, 2010, 08:35:26 AM

He did, and I said it was very close, but not correct, as there is another Renault R4-based car confusingly called Bandama, made in the Ivory Coast, which is not this car. So, this is the Bandana, not Bandama.
