This car has appeared on AP before, as part of a group puzzle, but has never had a puzzle of its own.
So what is it, by whom - for 1 point?:

Not BMW and not customised but a coachbuilt body.

It might be based on that model; I'm not really sure.

DKW ?

I'm sorry but I missed this reply; since it's correct and the puzzle is still unsolved I'll lock it for Gast1234's next reply to see if he can get the right car based on this information.
