Was there a completed real vehicle made by the same man/maker?

not made in a Mediterranean country. I don't know its manufacturer (and it is not important anyhow). Find the purpose and we can go from there. Yes, there was a real vehicle as well, but if I show you that - you'll say a-ha and this puzzle is quickly over.

Was it made for a movie?

It is not a beach vehicle, most probably designed in UK, not a William Towns design and yes, it was made for a movie.

Wendax found it first. This is a drawing of the vehicle which is now being featured as part of a very nice James Bond exhibition at the London Film Museum in Covent Garden.

The car was based on a Mini Moke according to IMCDB
