"May I submit 'Utopian Turtletop'? Do not trouble to answer unless you like it."

Nope.

French motorcycle manufacturer, active for a short time in the '30s.

No. Like I said, not a name you'd see on "cars" besides this one.

OK, I think this one is ready to be inflicted on the Pros...

Motocar Soriano 1940, France

ftg3plus4

Nope. And the company was only active in the early '30s.

OK, this has had a month of no activity. I think it's Black Hole time.

Nope, not quite that short-lived. But whatever list you found Suzy in probably has the right answer.

Maybe a Carpio then?
'My' list is well known.

ftg3plus4

Nope, but keep going. More toward the middle of the alphabet.

Not there yet. Keep going!

It's a pure guessing based on a country and years, as I can't find any background information about almost any motorcycle from the list which fits the criteria somehow...

But still...Magda?

ftg3plus4

Still not there, but close. Your guessing based on country & years should get you there soon.

Ninon? I've found a reference to Ninon models, and there were only two-wheelers as far as I can guess by the specs. Maybe it was incomplete, though...

ftg3plus4

That's the make! Can you find the model?

faksta

Not yet. If anyone would be faster, just go on.

ftg3plus4

OK, well, you'll get a point for finding the make.

Another point will be given to whoever finds the model name. It's out there on the web to be found, and it's a word that clearly evokes "3-wheeled vehicle."
