Pro´s choice...

Was this the only car built by its maker?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #4 on:** December 12, 2011, 02:04:37 PM »

I think so.

I only have one name and a year...

Wendax · « **Reply #5 on:** December 12, 2011, 02:10:17 PM »

1949?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #6 on:** December 12, 2011, 02:24:50 PM »

Right!

LOCKED for 24h, if it may help...

It's a cruel day today. Again I've seen it before but can't remember where. Perhaps a night's sleep might help

grobmotorix · « **Reply #8 on:** December 12, 2011, 03:22:45 PM »

You can hear the countdown. ...

But don´t worry - I do not really think anybody else will find it out until tomorrow...

Unlocked...

grobmotorix · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2012, 10:37:23 AM »

Not a Hanomag, sorry...

Wendax · « **Reply #14 on:** November 09, 2012, 02:32:47 AM »

The license plate is a postwar German one, from Lower Saxony (BN = Britsche Zone Niedersachsen).

kwgibbs · « **Reply #15 on:** November 09, 2012, 02:56:34 AM »

is this a cycle-car?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #16 on:** November 09, 2012, 11:58:05 AM »

According to wikipedia,

Quote

Cyclecars were small, generally inexpensive cars manufactured mainly between 1910 and the late 1920s

.

This is from 1949 and is fitted with a much smaller engine tha an average cyclecar of the decades before.

The manufacturer of this car comes fom Bavaria and its former name is still quite well known.
If I understand my source correctly it wasn´t intended to be a one-off, but possibly was one, though...

Are we looking for a person's name or a company name?

I want to know the company´s name (which is quite easy to find I´m sure)

and the model name (which is definitly hard...).

Wendax · « **Reply #19 on:** November 09, 2012, 02:45:46 PM »

Did the company build cars before WW2?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #20 on:** November 09, 2012, 02:57:30 PM »

I didn´t know they´ve built cars at all, before I´ve found this photo with an explanatory text...

But you and many others definitly know the company!

Wendax · « **Reply #21 on:** November 09, 2012, 03:09:48 PM »

Löwenbräu

grobmotorix · « **Reply #22 on:** November 09, 2012, 03:31:57 PM »

No.

The vehicles you definitly know only have two wheels...

Wendax · « **Reply #23 on:** November 09, 2012, 04:17:23 PM »

So we are looking for a well-known German motorcycle manufacturer who never built cars (except for our puzzle car). Triumph (TWN)?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #24 on:** November 09, 2012, 04:22:47 PM »

They were not really a motorcycle manufacturer, but have built the most important components...
