That is close. Wheels certainly match and the cab construction is similar.
The diamond grill badge dates it from 1925 - 1946.
I think the pressings of the steel on the grill match that yellow one pretty much exactly. I reckon Mick_r has it you know.
It's the Renault 5 tonnes made from the 30s to the 40s.
OK my go with another truck.
This isn't a wreck, more a snap from the brochure. 1 point for what it is, another for recognising what is special about this one.

Nothing as exotic as some so far but here are a couple from today's ride.
Easy:
Pro:
Mick_r is yours an autonomous ISO container drone for use in ports, dockside? Wait, no, the distribution is wrong. It has got ISO locks though...
Nope. Think the locks are just for a removable body. It has a cab - I just cropped it off to make it more fun. It was a mass production UK road vehicle - just they didn't make many of this particular version.
Squirrel King - is your pro one a Range Rover Sport?
Mick_r. I would say the truck has been converted to electric power. No idea of make/model though
I like your thinking on the pro one above. Definitely something with a very beefy active antiroll system.
I had a small involvement in the hydraulic arc system hence the recognition........
Truck is electric. Wasn't an aftermarket conversion.
On my way home from town the other day I took a different route to the one I normally use, one I haven’t walked along for years, and I came on this dumped by the footpath. It’s within sight of a road, at the bottom of a field, almost certainly stolen and torched by someone who knew how to get there, it’s some way from any main roads, off of a private access road.
Could make a decent doer-upper...
That's a BMW 3 series
BMW 3 Series, 3rd gen.

You're only meant to blow the bloody doors off...... 😉
Looks like a Mini?
Didn’t think it would take anyone long to identify the beemer, I’ve got another photo with the bootlid lifted up to show the circular badge recess, but I thought that would be just too obvious.
I don’t like beemers particularly, but that does seem to be a waste.
Looks like a Mini?
What I was thinking, the circular hole in the centre of the dash for the speedo is a clue - a design feature sadly used in current BMW Minis, some retro features should be just left to die.
