It helps to have a country that is wide enough that long cars don't exceed the coast to coast dimension. (18 ft)

It's an Auto Union DKW F102.

Peter, you just beat me to it!

Auto Union was formed with the merger of four German firms; DKW, Horch, Wanderer and Audi. Originally only Auto Union specific cars wore the three ringed emblem with the other brands continuing with their own identity. ,

I really hate to disagree with experts, but isn't this a very close match?

The F102 according to everything I've seen, was a 1960ies car.

Thanks for your help!

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

My apologies. F102 is totally wrong. You have indeed found a closer match with wipers from the top of the screen
