The opposite of a Model T, colourwise.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

I can't believe the experts let this one escape to the pros.  :o

I'm rather surprised to see this one here too!  Anyway, this is the very first-generation Due, based on an older Ligier model (X-Too), and only sold in a small selection of European markets (Italy, Spain, Portugal, etc., but not France!).  It was only available in white.

Yes, exactly! One more point for you.

Now we have all Dué models here at AutoPuzzles, the first one in this puzzle, the second one here: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=14780, and the third one here: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=26490. Not to forget their namesake prototype from long ago: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=9952

Thanks Wendax.  The original Opron-designed prototype remains my favourite, and it's really a pity that Ligier never made this car.   :-\

I agree. With the right engine this could have been a Smart à la francaise.
