I was going to say some very early Mercedes C111 prototype but I’m quite sure it’s not.

You are correct in that, it is not a Mercedes.

I don’t know what you are referring to, but it is not amphibious.

Interesting! I would have guessed Dome as maybe a stablemate to the mighty Zero, or Datsun based on their 126X concept--never dowdy old Isuzu! I suppose they’ve always had some help from Italdesign Giugiaro, but this era was the time of the elegant 117 coupe and upright Florian, not the wedgy Piazza and Gemini!
