Hey guys! I need You help a little bit!
I know only the years and the manufacturer of this.. car.. or what..
So! Anyone who correctly identifies what it is and maybe gives any more details (model name.. :-\ ) will get a perfect point!
Good luck!
Got a feeling this may have been a Karmann project

Perfect feeling, but it is not Karmann :(
Looks like a BMW Series 5-based Landaulette... too far?

Yes.. much too far.. :-[
P.S. Have You read my first post about this puzzle? ;)
Is it a scale model?

That's a very good question! In fact, I really don't know, but I think that most likely it IS a scale model..
I'm pretty sure I've seen this model at a motor show. Maybach maybe?

To me it looks like a Bugatti Veyron Targa.

An edgy, 4-door, soft-top, 4-seater front engined Veyron, then... :lmao:
lagonda?
Made by a coachbuilder or a design school?

Neither I think..
But I guess it's not a car manufacturer per se, right...?

Sorry.. but what does it mean
per se ? ::)
I mean a car of their own. For example, the Fuore BlackJag was authorized by Jaguar to use their badge but it wasn't Jaguar's car.
What I was trying to ask was if the car (mock-up?) wasn't build by a current manufacturer but rather a coachbuilder or design company who presented a car of their own interpretation of what a certain marque's car should / could be.
Looks like a retro- styled proposal for a BMW 7 series Landaulet ::)

As far as I know this car is not an interpretation. It was also built by the company is neither coachbuilder nor design studio, but whose main activity is somehow related with automobiles.
'Related with automobiles'? Webasto?
Is it a Germany company?

Correct! As I don't know the model name (if it's any) please tell me the possible years to get a point! I'm holding it!
eehh..2006-2007?
Wow thanks.. ;D
Webasto Hattrick

Webasto RSQ
I see the model name for the first time.. The years are also needed.. Could You somehow explain the name You provided?
Edited.
Quote from: Anton on November 25, 2008, 02:54:37 PM
Edited.
I think I will say NO, because this car REALLY ISN'T Volswagen Touareg. And the years are also wrong (if we see when Hattrick was presented)..
I'd pick 2007.
Oh, no.. forget 2007. I bet it's 2008, cause at 2008 Geneva Motor Show Webasto had some number of 1:4 scale models exhibited.

My source says You have just one big mistake! :(
Then it's the Hybrid Sports Limousine

Please motivate Your answer! My source doesn't provide any model name!
UPDATE: I've just checked for that name, and YES it is connected with Webasto as it is mentioned as a 1:4 scale model! I have it as presnted at IAA 2007 and only one more + plus picture! Congratulations Anton, I believe Your answer is the most accurate! One point goes for You!
Frankly, I think faksta deserves the point, I wouldn't have scored without his hint towards Webasto.
Oh, and as to my answer- the other models were everything but a limousine. So if it was one of the scaled down models, it could only have been the limousine.
Thanks, Anton, though I think i wouldn't specify the model correctly - it took me some time, but I still didn't get any positive results.
Jeezzus! The rear end is quite nice but that front... looks like some Chris Banger design... (yes, I mispelled on purpous... SCN folks know that!).
This car actually does have a name. It's called "Soletair". I was about to post it as a puzzle but upon re-checking I found this old thread.
