Let's try again with a new puzzle from me.

Dear puzzlers, please provide the complete name of the below car. Or rather chassis/engine combination.

Oh yes, you can gain a point by doing so.

I think the car is named after the town it is from.

Manufacturer existed for more than 10 years (to be more precise: made cars for more than 10 years?)

Opps, too late.
Did they produce different models or just this one?

As far as I am aware: yes.
...I admit the question was not that clear...so they did produce other models.
Is the name the same name of the city (like Reissig) or derivated from it?

Then my answer is wrong. They only produced one model as far as I am aware.
I believe the car's name is derived from the city, but is not an exact match.
