Is it a French PRM Fun Boost?

I know the name of the company that made the body, and is not French. But I don't know the name of the car... You hae to provide some proof of that.  ;)

I'm struggling to find proof of PRM, as I have a sales brochure for them and the Fun Boost somewhere, but I have not found it as yet.

PRM was based on the main entrance road into the Nevers Magny-Cours motor circuit in central France for many years, and produced the Fun Boost GT (as below) and RC with style of body, which have inspired a number of similar copies, of which your puzzle may be one.

Definitely not. And nor exactly a coachbuilder, but more a composite materials specialist.

Yes, and now I can also tell you that the name of the body-maker is somehow linked to the city.
But remember, for the point I need to  know which is the car manufacturer, not the maker of the body.

Thank you ! Once PC Plast was identified it was quite easy to find the car which is featured on Desikur's website and Facebook page.
