I saw that in the Deutsches Technisches Museum in Berlin but I can't remember who the maker was.

Thanks for the links Peter.

What a wonderful little car it is, even the name!

It was in Munich, by the way, so I suppose that there must be at least two, unless of course they have bought it from Berlin...
