I expect that, should Grobo drop by, this one will be solved in heartbeat. Otherwise, it may last a bit longer.  :D

Looks like a baby version of the 1964-65 Chevrolet Turbo Titan or Dodge Deora (I know that's not it).  I suspect some Isetta lineage due to the front-mounted door.  A proposed styling update for the Iso Isettacarro?  Or the equivalent for one of its spin-offs (BMW, Heinkel Trojan, Isetta Velam, or Zundapp Janus)?

It is a prototype of the Farmobil, powered by a BMW boxer engine.

I do own a BMW Farmobil brochure, but it never was built as a BMW in big numbers. The project was sold to Chrysler asnd produced in Greece...

So this was a prototype:
