Is it a Norsjo Shopper from Sweden?

It looks like it, but this one is not from Sweden

There's another small vehicle with the same model name, which should be well known to experts and pro's  ;)

I have no exact time frame for these vehicles, but it's later then 1949, when the picture on the tricycle was taken  ;)

I assumed so from those number plates in the background. Silly question, but is there any info available online on this?

Yes, Google comes up with 3 results, one of which leads to the man on the tricycle. The picture I posted was online too, but was taken off a while ago.

Once you've found the country you should be able to find it  ;)

Google is now only giving two results on this vehicles make and model. Make and model start with the same letter.

The guy on the three-wheeler is Ragner Mathéy. Megu Mopetta is what you are looking for.
