Who built this nice coach? On what basis? When was it?

Sorry Pguillem, I wasn't paying attention in my answer to your question #3. The base of the vehicle is not German, but it was built in Germany.

No, but you have been moving in the right region for three answers.

Yes, it is a Gräf & Stift. My source says nothing about the model designation. So all that's missing now is the builder and year of construction.

So far I have been lucky shooting in the dark.
I have absolutely no idea of the coachbuilder.
Let's see if Pguillem knows more
Auwarter?

Yes, I'm also curious to see how it goes with you two....
Auwärter is not the solution.
