I think I saw a picture of something like that in my friend's scrapbook (he recently spent a year teaching English in Japan).

From looking at his pictures and what he told me that kind of thing is more common, he also told me that the Japanese seem to be into vehicles like the Nissan Figaro and the one listed above.

That is just too freaking cool! Makes me think naughty thoughts about the Escort.

Those Micra 'Mk 2's are quite common over here in Tokyo.
In the mid/late 90's retro was all the rage and you still see
a fair few varieties. Not my cup of green tea...
There's one that looks remarkably like a classic Mini from the front,
only to be generic Daihatsu from behind the A-pillars.
The S-Cargo is a nifty little thing, though. A reinvention
of the Citroen/Renault bread vans.
On a slightly different note, my neighbor bought a new Toyota Vitz
(Yaris?) a few months ago. The car is pink and she's washing that thing every weekend.
Thus soapy water collects in my driveway and, being Japanese, she apologizes weekly
with the words "So sorry, I wash my Pink Bits every week", to which my standard reply
is "A bare minimum, Yamanaka-san, a bare minimum"

But can you make it leak oil for true realism? Haha.
