I *think* it's a Heuliez(?) ambulance conversion:

I'd love to have a "ambulance" like this... or maybe a 6 wheel XM loadrunner. It would be something that would be great at the rallies.

PS: Any CX news? :roll:

Yes, could be a Heuliez, but there were other coachbuilders who did similar versions. French ambulance service is almost all private companies - more like a medical taxi service than the UK model. All the hydro-pneumatic Citroéns were popular as ambulances for obvious reasons of ride quality.
