We didn't have too many five-wheelers before.  :D

For one point, please respond and identify this little van.

I know it's the van name you want but my brother is nuts about bikes and he says that it looks like the very rare AOK from Austria having a piggyback  - who am I to argue, I've no idea of the van name though

I didn't know about the bike, but I looked it up in my source and your brother is right about the AOK. I will lock this puzzle for you. If you find out where the AOK was photographed, you will find the answer to this puzzle.

ok thanks for the clue, there isn't many museums with an AOK in them!

1937 Krauseco K4 from Austria, in common with the bike a rare object!
