Yes, it is a 1933 Wanderer W22 with a Hornig body. To obtain the point you just have to tell me what the car was used for which will lead to the body designation. Otto's picture in Reply #42 wil be helpful. Locked for you.

Was it used in Alpine Trials (Alpenfahrt) covering c.20,000km?

Yes, it was used for long-distance rallyes like the Alpenfahrt. I don't want to torture you anymore. I was looking for the "Geländesport" designation. Six W22 Geländesport were built: three in 1933 and three in 1934. They only differ slightly. In fact, the one Otto posted is the 1933 version with doorhandles and a grill with less bars than the 1934 version from the puzzle picture. I found it quite amazing to find a rallye car as staffage for a romantic postcard. Can you imagine something like that with, let's say, a Metro 6R4 or an Audi Sport quattro S1?

One more point for you.

Thanks Wendax.
I did think of adding 'Gelandesport' (with umlaut) but thought Alpenfahrt was more important.....
I also learnt something new and interesting today through your puzzle.
