Ligier, but not a Nova, although related.

No, getting colder. It is a very special Ambra.

No, Ligier and Aixam are two different companies, competitors in the same market.

No, we had already figured out that it is a Ligier, and that it is based on a Ligier Ambra.

Was this version made by Ligier itself, or was it tuned by an external company ?

Exactly! Two points for you.

Does anybody have a photo of it?

Zut Alors!  How on earth did I miss this one!  I thought it had been solved a long time ago  ???.

I remember this drawing well, as it was used on as the lead image on the cover of a newspaper that Ligier was handing out at the 1999 Paris Salon. 

I probably do have a photograph of it somewhere, but as it was the pre-digital camera age, it might take me some time to find it.  When I do, I will be sure to add it here.
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.
