Motto.

That post behind the driver looks to me like the muzzle end of a rifle. Also looks like a large spotlight mounted on the right end of the front bumper.

Default Ahaa! Now I see it.

That explains it all - it's a 'shooting buggy'! I would have picked it straight off if there was a dead deer lashed onto the front of the vehicle.

Following this logic, by far the most popular shooting buggy is this one:



Its doors are mounted shut, it has side steps/stirrups and spotlight, it carries two Lee-Enfield rifles in gun racks and even a submashine gun.

Ilian.

Thanks for posting. Both vehicles have a similar plate between the grill and right head lamp and also the same twin flag mount on the upper right side fender. In the top photo, both flag posts are almost side by side, so it is difficult to ID the second flag.

Maybe the key to location/context is in the front right metal plate.
