Time to give away some points. You know the drill - tell me the name of the car pictured below and you'll be awarded a point  :)

I admit I have a problem with this one. I don't remember what it is :/ I had the name in a file on my long lost computer. However, I'm almost certain it wasn't called Vico. Anyone can provide any proof? I'll be happy to grant the point then.

All right, I found the original file with my answers and it is indeed the Autotecnica Vico. It was discussed here earlier, as admitted by faksta and Allemano, but no photo was featured on the site and it wasn't itself the subject of a puzzle. Therefore, I think it shouldn't be considered a repost and Allemano geets a point :)

Be that as it may and thanks for the point, but I guess jotage21's answer didn't come out of nothing....

True, but I consider "Autotecnica Vico" to be the complete answer.

I knew it was there but it was just a list of solved puzzles and I couldn't find the actual puzzle it referred to.
Anyway, you've answered the "by whom" part of the question but not the "What's this" bit yet.
So I still need the answer to what it is to award the point, but I will lock it for you for one try.

That's the son of the founder of Autotecnica Vico, Giorgio Vico, who made the puzzle car. Maurizio took over in 2006.
But what is the car?!
