Is the manufacturer known for other microcars ?

Not that I am aware of. In fact, I had never heard of this manufacturer before encountering the source material. I even took steps to verify that the material was not mislabeled or otherwise misidentified and I was assured by the owner that this was not the case.

Built between 1980 and 1985 ?

As it seems to be obscure, I assume few were built. Built only in 1984 ?

I have the year as 1983. No idea how many were built, however.

Not that I am aware of. I have never seen or heard anything about this company other than the source material from 1983. A web search turns up a current company using this name, but it is not an automobile manufacturer and is not in the same location.

The only information I have on this car is the name and general location of the manufacturer, the model name and the year of production.

I now have some technical and mechanical information in case anyone has questions.

Was one of the engines a diesel unit ?
