The company is well-known in the commercial vehicle field but not so much in the passenger car sector.

kwgibbs · « **Reply #12 on:** February 16, 2013, 09:37:12 AM »

Citroen?

targhediferro · « **Reply #13 on:** February 16, 2013, 10:35:26 AM »

Berliet?

woodinsight · « **Reply #14 on:** February 16, 2013, 11:41:42 AM »

Not Citroen or Berliet....

This vehicle is rather special as it's the coachbuilder who built it in its entirety.

Yes, it was built as a mobile (semi-trailer) blood donation unit by Gruau.

It doesn't look like a semi-trailer; it looks driveable, if a bit top-heavy?

woodinsight · « **Reply #23 on:** February 20, 2013, 12:40:20 PM »

I meant to include the caption to the photo as well $:-\$

Somehow the caption doesn't seem to match the picture.
