I'm reaching the end of my references for 1923 automobiles manufactured in Berlin.  While Wendax 1221 was just solved, might Wendax 1233 be another offering by the same manufacturer?  Specifically, an: Alfi Sports 2/10 PS?

Not an Alfi

I know that the manufacturer is known to you.  ;)

Oh Gerd, now you really have me going with that last comment.  I interpret it to mean that the puzzle car is from a rather obscure company that I have previously indicated that I am aware of by my inquiries, or perhaps even solving a previous puzzle car by the manufacturer.  Only one such obscure manufacturer comes to mind that fits all the criteria.  Might this puzzle car be a: 1923 Omikron?

It is not an Omikron, but you have once placed a guess asking the manufacturer's name I am looking for.

Yes, well done!

I don't know exactly which Wittekind model the puzzle car is. They built a 4/12 PS, a 5/15 PS, a 6/18 PS, a 6/20 PS and a 6/24 PS.
Some more pictures from the Wittekind brochure:
