Hansa-Lloyd Trumpf-As 8 cyl. late 1920s.
Have been trying to pinpoint the event the cars appeared in without success so far.

Well, that´s not the model name I have.
You´re right with the 8 cyl. engine anyway.

Another point will be awarded to anyone who can tell me where the photography has been made.

No, the models we have here are another type of Hansas.

They were built with american Continental 6- or 8-inline-cyl. engines.
Only the chassis was a Hansa product, the bodies have been built at Karmann/Osnabrück according to my sources.

Still locked for you...

That´s it!

Those are Hansa-Lloyd A8 (and according to my source A6) sports bodied cars.

I try to grab that one.  ;)
Those three cars were participating in the Internationale Alpenfahrt 1929, where they won their class. The drivers were Fredo and Werner Sporkhorst as well as Obering. Hörbe.
