No, the name of the puzzle car is not related to a city, only the second hint car is.

It was built by Walter Herbst from Hamburg in 1952 and driven regularly until 1960. It was revived in 1970 for a short while. Since then it has been sheltered and cared for. It is powered by an ILO 250 cc twin engine. It was on display at a local shopping mall in 1990. I've never seen it since.
