I´d say this may be a Kässbohrer design.
They´re still known for their buses and this must have been a very rich company, that may have used it for quite exclusive tours.

Mercedes S (620) chassis, ca.1929-1930.

I have found a similar vehicle named "Reiselust" in a book, where it ran for a company "J.Nerbl" from Weilheim in Bavaria.

No, but it is from a Rhine city.

Not Kässbohrer, more obscure I'm afraid.

They must be twins then... :-\

I can see some very little differences  at the fenders, but they are clones - who was first?

EVA (Eisenbahn-Verkehrsmittel-Aktiengesellschaft)?

They were based in Berlin, but had a factory in Brühl near Cologne...

Neither nor.


Maybe it's not so hard if you guess the city first of all..

To the south, so it's not D'dorf.
