To my best knowledge - no.

BIG HINT: itīs got an international, very self-talking name!

This is exactly the right direction, but neither of the two parts is correct, yet... ;)

That is exactly it!

Iīm not sure if I can give you this point after this fundamental hint, really.

Maybe you can also give me the exact year - you will only have three tries and I will only comment with "yes" or "no"...

 ;)

LOCKED for you!

The Opel next to the Minimobil looks quite new. So I go for 1962.

Very consequent - but still wrong.  :-[

Hmmm. How to proceed now.

Iīll unlock it again.

Anyone despite Wendax is still allowed to ask for the correct year.

Anyone including Wendax may tell me which engine (correct ccm AND make!) was used for this contraption...


I think this is fair... ;)
