Solved: Wendax 617 - Wanderer W22 Geländesport

You may well translate the text. It might improve your knowledge of German poetry, but won't help you to find out what this car might be.

For one point, please respond and identify this car, its coachbuilder and the year it was built.

Maybe it isn't German.  Is it the Tatra that Röhr built under licence?

Once upon a time there was a lonesome pro looking for an answer to the riddle the princess told him.
Will he be able to finish this "Märchen vom Glück" (fairytale about luck)?

No, some of the other guesses were closer to the solution.  :(

It's bigger than a Dixi 3/15 PS (and not a BMW either).
