Quiller · October 09, 2008, 06:00:58 AM

What's the make and model of this car?

Quiller · October 21, 2008, 12:55:46 PM

in your expert opinion...

Allemano · October 21, 2008, 12:58:39 PM

NSU Ro80 Gmarmeier shown on Salon de Geneve 1975.

Any front pics in stock?

Quiller · October 21, 2008, 03:45:05 PM

No pics other than this one I'm afraid. Anyone else?

Arunas · November 26, 2008, 04:56:55 PM

That a really interesting example! It seems that only this one picture could be found while searching the internet.. Anyone has any details about that particular model?

Allemano · November 26, 2008, 04:59:59 PM

No! Even the book I have only provides this angle...

But this car is a prototype, right? Any ideas what "Gmarmeier" could mean?

Sounds like a German last name, presumably rather from the south.

I think you deserve a point...

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:01:06 PM

No problem — if you provide a front view of this car!

Paul Jaray · March 23, 2009, 04:02:22 PM

Whait a moment! That's not the same name I have...and mine is sure...
who will find the right name?

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:06:50 PM

You must be kidding!!!!

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:08:47 PM

Gmarmair?

Paul Jaray · March 23, 2009, 04:09:52 PM

Sort of....it's obviusly the same car, but in my picture the name is written on the wall (that's why I'm sure). It is based on the NSU but it's been mispelled in the previous quiz. You had the chance to find out the correct name.

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:11:50 PM

Exclusively me?

Then it also has to be mispelled in the book I have. And in all the sources I know, too

My second guess would be "Gmahrmeier" for some reason

Paul Jaray · March 23, 2009, 04:23:09 PM

You already had the point because you found the car. In my picture, taken from his stand in a show, the name is written on the wall, that's why I'm pretty sure that's the correct one, and no, it's not that. It's open to all.

Arunas · March 23, 2009, 04:31:19 PM

Gmarmehier?

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:37:35 PM

I strongly believe it starts with an "G" (logo of the back wheels) Secondly I believe it ends with "....meier"
(A little) strange is the "Gmar" so I (not really!) guess there's a vowel between the first and the second character.
So my last guess would be Gemahrmeier.

Allemano · March 23, 2009, 04:48:43 PM

Wait! What about Grahmeier?

It's driving me nuts! Gmarmeyer? (would be a new dimension of nit-picking in my opinion..)

faksta · March 23, 2009, 05:21:03 PM

Or Gmarmeiner
