Looks like it might be a four seat prototype or extended version of the Ligier JS4  Did they not try for a Taxi version at one time?

That's a good start, although it is not a Ligier.

Yes, a four-door version of the Ligier JS4/6/8, never available in France.

This Otoser model was called the Butterfly and was also sold in North America as the Multimax.

Ligier wasn't able to offer a four-door JS variant in France as the model's extra length would have contravened the VSP (voiture sans permis) regulations on size restrictions.

Thank you for this extra information. I've added the Turkish model name Kelebek to the header.

Ah, so Kelebek is Butterfly in Turkish  :). That explains it, as I have a (poorly written) English language export leaflet on this machine with the name OTOSER Butterfly. I'll try and find it and scan it in.

A Turkish site referred to it as an Otoser Kelebek, and according to Google Translator it's Turkish for butterfly.

Sorry, I forgot to add a point to your total. And I gave one to Djetset as well for his additional information.
