I don't think so. The Mercedes-Benz was probably just placed in the picture to show how small the puzzle car is.

Is it a one-off or the prototype of a car that later went into production?

Is it either a German SB (Slaby-Beringer) car fitted with a DKW engine by J.S. Rasmussen or a DKW 'Bergsteiger'?

I wish to make a complaint!  :)

When I asked if it was electric-powered the answer was: "no"

Oh! I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to mislead you. I must have had the early ones with a petrol engined fifth wheel in mind, when I gave the answer.

Please do not worry!  ;D

What's funny though is that I remember seeing a picture of that version with a fifth wheel and engine, but it never occured to me that it might have been from the same manufacturer!
