Adler is close, alphabetically and compared by the companies.

The truth lies in between A(dler) and D(ürkopp).

Maybe my next answer will take some days again. I´ve moved recently and my phone/internet is still inactive.

 :applause:

I was quite surprised that a company like Brennabor has ever made it to the Brooklands racetrack, when I´ve discovered this photo some month ago.

Another fact is unusual about this car. The radiator was located at the rear of the car in order put some weight on the rear axle.

Does anybody have a rear view of this car?
In a book I received today, but unfortunately I'm not able to scan it.
