Probably just a customized golf cart. I couldn’t find anything either on google.

Not pictured are the euro tags front and back. Yellow with black letters . I thought custom golf cart too but the details inside and out seemed too much for just that . The seats, steering wheel, seat belts, lights - that’s a LOT of extraneous detail for a golf cart.

ETA: yes it’s a Hustler 6 - here’s a link with a “Space Shuttle” photo:

Yeah they are really cool, apparently there’s a Jag V12 powered 6 wheel version that must have been crazy.
