Yes, locked for you to identify the three children and the engine used, as I don't have a name or an exact year for this car.

The children are Peter, Claus and Monica from Borgward's second marriage. I have to guess at the engine: An early Lloyd 250 cc?

Of course you got the children right, Peter Borgward at the wheel. The engine is not a Lloyd engine though.
