Maybe it´s an exclusive little design piece, built for a snobbish billionaire for his yacht to discover all the places where it enters a harbour?

Thank you for your excellent 'state of play to date' summary PJ, and thank you all gentlemen for your other exotic suggestions. Sadly it is none of those though.

As PJ has correctly highlighted, so far the closest answers have been that this was designed for specific markets, usually based by the sea.

I fear this puzzle may still be here for another 12 months, so to help get it solved, a clue to consider is markets where Vauxhall Viva-based vehicles have been built and sold (and I don't mean the UK!).

The reward for the correct name of this Vauxhall is now increasing to 2 points as an added incentive!

New Zealand?

Djetset · « **Reply #103 on:** December 12, 2010, 03:48:17 PM »

No, New Zealand was not one of the markets this car was designed for.

Australia?

Djetset · « **Reply #105 on:** December 12, 2010, 03:58:06 PM »

Not there either!

Canada?

Getting colder.

Europe?

South Africa?

Neither Europe, nor South Africa.

Caribbean?

Israel?

Djetset · « **Reply #113 on:** December 13, 2010, 06:39:26 AM »

No to Israel, but yes to the Caribbean!

Oguerrerob · « **Reply #114 on:** December 13, 2010, 07:17:17 AM »

Jamaica?

Djetset · « **Reply #115 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:40:41 PM »

The Caribbean as a region is close enough, as it was intended for many markets there, including Jamaica.

Now, to get this one solved before Christmas, remember we are trying to find the name of this Vauxhall, so as a big clue, what is popular in the Caribbean

Oguerrerob · « **Reply #116 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:42:52 PM »

Rum, Music and beaches!!

Reggae and Grass?

Djetset · « **Reply #119 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:47:32 PM »

Good response! Oguerrerob, you are on to something here, so which one of the three 'past times' are you going to choose?#

Ah, I see you've just posted another answer, but it's not Reggae and not Grass!

Oguerrerob · « **Reply #120 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:50:29 PM »

Must be Beaches

Djetset · « **Reply #121 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:53:51 PM »

No, not Beaches!

Allemano · « **Reply #122 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:54:50 PM »

Is it to drive drunken tourist at home, resp. back to their hotel resorts?

Oguerrerob · « **Reply #123 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:54:57 PM »

Djetset · « **Reply #124 on:** December 13, 2010, 01:56:52 PM »

Not Rum, and hopefully not driven by drunks!
