Well I got there in the end I think! I recognised it immediately but couldn't actually remember what it was... 

Thanks ,

OK, I had to think for a minute as the shape is VERY familiar to me (childhood memory) but I believe I zeroed on exactly what it is.

Yes, I wouldn't mind having one too! You certainly won't see yourself coming and going!

The childhood memory this evoked was a Nomad like wagon that Opel made during the late '50's/early '60's. I used to see one parked at a neighbors house all the time, but it would be years till I figured out what it was. The front end on that was similar to the one pictured, and that's what made me think Opel. Just one of the really oddball cars I used to see in my neighborhood in the late '60's...........stuff you NEVER see on the roads today unless you go to a show.
