Saw this on Telly earlier, in a dogfood ad. Not sure what it is. Could it be an early Taunus Transit? Something more obscure, or just a computer generated image ? Answers on a postcard.

Fiat seems possible, also reminds me a little of something from the 'other' side of germany

I've seen this advert a few times now, I honestly thought It was a Taunus Transit like your Grizz.

Too many details are wrong for it to be a Fiat I think. Fiat 238 by Maurizio Boi, on Flickr Haven't seen the ad but going from that screen shot it looks like some kind of model to me... No shutlines, strange bottom-of-door to wheelarch relationship, very heavy handed chrome around whatever that is above the grille... Could be wrong, of course ;D

All looks a bit computer rendered to me. I doubt it's a real van, just an artist's impression of one....

That said, although it's rendered, it's clearly based on a Fiat 1100T

Could it be that the makers of the advert thought - barkas sounds like the dog food, so..... (okay it looks nothing like it, lol)

Ive noticed quite few cars on tv ads that have been rendered to look a bit different yet to us petrolheads is obvious what they really are....
summat to do with copyright laws or similar maybe? saves them having to ask for permission to use them in an ad?
