A VW built under licence outside Germany?

fromwien · October 21, 2022, 09:06:05 AM

No

D-type · October 21, 2022, 02:34:49 PM

So, it isn't a VW?

fromwien · October 21, 2022, 03:01:20 PM

It is a VW

D-type · October 21, 2022, 05:41:05 PM

Have I understood you cryptic answers correctly:
It is a VW
It was built in Germany
You do not know the make of the engine so this is not relevant to the puzzle
It was not a VW factory prototype

Is the body customised by a German coachbuilder?
