Locked for you. Spelling is almost okay and something is missing from the name. How did you find it?

Is it about Schneeberger or Fuffi?

I'm afraid I'll need too much time to come with an answer...
Is Fuffi correct? I wrote 'Fuffy' before so, probably that was the mistake.
About the missing part, is it the model name?

Fuffi is right. Now I only need a suffix - and then the first point is yours. 2nd point will be awarded to anyone who tells me the name of the builder.

...a suffix? I can only guess, but then you can unlock:
Le Fuffi?

Oh my...I messed up between suffix and prefix...  :bag:
OK, then I'll start with the obvious: Fuffi I.
Please unlock it, I can go for at least other 9 attempts....(well if 0 counts as a number...)

You're almost there, don't despair. It is an Arabic number and not 1

The point is yours! It is the Fuffi 2, but I'd need the name of the builder for a 2nd point!

Hehe. No, his initials are P. B and he was working for GM Suisse SA when he built this car. Nothing extraordinary about him
