Well, I had it as a 1908 model year, but this is your point!

Does anybody know a specific model designation of this car?

I read it had a 4 cilinder engine with 40 hp. Maybe that helps.

I had it as a 1906 De Dietrich built for Baron von Eckhardstein, coachwork by Marple & Co, but that may be incorrect.

There even was a second one - less luxurious and officially an "Omnibus":

I found a nice photo of another unusual six-wheeler - does anybody know if this might also be a De Dietrich?
