That blue and white shield emblem near the ‘license plate’ was on the front-end, too. What the hell is this thing? Sorta reminds me of an old Volkswagen?

I think it’s a 1970s G wagon.

It’s a G Wagen or version thereof.
To be exact, it’s a military spec one. They’re used by many armies.

I think they were military vehicles at one point and the design hasn’t changed since then.

The body line along the side and the turn signal on the top is what sold me on it.

Probably an old G-wagon, they used to be made by steyr-puch, if I’m not mistaken, which I could be.

Someone here corrected me a while back - designed for the Australian army, not Austrian as I thought. And overdesigned. And just silly.

Mercedes would probably like people to think that, but they’re still rolling out of an old moped factory in Austria.

I must have been thinking of the X3, originally they were made by Steyr, until they converted moved production to South Carolina.
