Hoffman tendencies, but titled Iso Romi on the pic script. Yet it was Iso that made such a fuss over anyone else using a front door wasn't it? The Hoffman Autokabin were effectively eradicated early on, as I understand it. Did any survive?

Looks like an Isetta that's nine months gone. Perhaps that's how little isetta's come to be?

It is not a car.  It exists only as an image on a computer that has been manipulated.

Here's a link to the original site that the manipulated image came from which does have a few other interestingly modified images of microcars.

Indeed, virtual car collecting, girlfriends on the cartoon channel thingy, can fix up a home PC system but cannot mend a leaking tap. Hey ho.
