It is, yes.
But according to my records it does have a name, which I need to award the point!

We could name it "Royal beach car" as it was used in Porte Ercole, the Italian summer residence of the Dutch Royal Family...

It was, but that's still not its official name...

The Puzzle picture was taken at a Dutch DAF display in 1999, where it was part of a "summer on the beach" display, complete with surfboards and sand!  Don't know exactly where the display was, though, sorry.

As you say the car is now in the DAF museum in Eindhoven.
