ID:450 is a 1988 ARO 10.

The ARO 10 debuted in 1980 in four markets simultaneously under the names:
  1. Dacia 10 in Romania,
  2. ARO Trapeurs in France,
  3. ARO Ischia in Italy and
  4. Dacia Duster in the UK.
It was powered by a 1,397 cc petrol engine that could push the little truck upto 118 km/h.

Although the wheels were small, the responsive yielding suspension -- double wishbones with coils at the front, and leaf springs at the rear gave good offroad performance. It had a shiftable transfer-case for part-time 4WD.
