A couple of months ago I saw a cool little square shaped open top a bit like a moke but less ugly.(sorry)
I think it may have been a fiat or seat but can't seem to find anything like it online.
Any ideas you lot?

There are a few variations of Mokes. The closest to the original design I can think of is called a Jimini. These were pretty much a copy of a Moke but had a fibreglass body and square headlamps, well some were square.
There are quite a few beach cars, look the same at the front as a normal small hatch but have either no doors or cut down version and no roof. Having got involved with Perodua and Daihatsu Miras I have found they made a beach car version of those.

Any ideas you lot? Try googling fiat + jolly to find out if your feeling is right. But these are less square. Mehari has been mentioned, but there was also the renault rodeo. |

It looked more like the Rodeo you mentioned but smaller. |

Could it be a Mega? Don't know if these where available in the uk, here they are known as the Mega Tjaffer, believe they call them Mega Ranch in other countries. images.app.goo.gl/a8V58BrrvoaMzued7 |

^Which looks remarkably like the wartime Kubelwagen. I thought so too except the front is different. I like the concept.
