It's very similar, I agree, but it isn't. This is the McRae Enduro (I had it ready for later posting), and as you can see, it's not quite the same:

Not a Toyota, no...

The mechanical bits are actually American.

Edit: I decided to throw in another picture.

It looks distantly related to a Saturn Vue - meant for Baja or Dakar?

As far as I know, it's not related to any Saturn in any other way than that the mechanical bits are American. The rest of the car is, again as far as I know, built in a very different country. And it wasn't only meant for Baja or Dakar  ;)

Hey! I must know it, beacuse it is manufactured by our neighbours :-D It's the Latvian Dakar rally automobile Oscar  O3. You can find the same foto here: http://rigarrt.lv/lv/photo/?g2_itemId=416 and the official webiste is http://www.osc.lv/. Great puzzle :-)

Ah! Congratulations! I think this is worth two points, it's been unsolved for so long!
