It looks so damn familiar and I´m quite sure I´ve come across it some time ago, but I do not have the slightest clue.

But I´m sure it it none of the Porsche 534, 555 or 728 concepts...

I'm going to post this car to one of the German car mags. Let's see if it will be featured there...

Featured right next to the Batmobile!

Yes, in the German "Oldtimer Markt" magazine, February edition, on page 196, right next to an obituary for Derek Gardner (designer of the six-wheeled Tyrrell P34) and an article about the Batmobile replica by Fiberglass Freaks .

I checked it now. I'm afraid the down-sized picture as shown in the mag is too small for a definite ID.  :-\

It's an Unbekannt Prototyp (and yes I do know what that means!)
So you got no replies from the magazine or anywhere else?
I looks so professional; I'm surprised there's no record of it anywhere.

There was a VW Beetle-based Austro-Tatra prototype that looked a lot like this, but I'm really struggling to find any photographic proof.  For the moment though, an Austro-Tatra gets my vote and I will try and find some evidence to back this up..
It has a Tatra look about it and it does resemble the Tatra 108 so might it be another Tatra prototype?
