No, AFAIK it has no connection to Tempo, and if it does have it's under a completely different name.
I will investigate so I don't mislead.


I have checked.
The design is in fact based on a Tempo (hence the striking similarity in appearance), but neither a Matador nor a Rapid.

It's exhibited here by a different manufacturer and was marketed under their name.

That's it!
It's a Tempo Wiking made under licence.

It also went under the name of Jensen Tempo 1500, as can be seen in my former group puzzle: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=15253.0

Thanks Wendax!
I was about to post the following brochure in this thread so I might as well still do so:
