I am fairly sure it is pre-1st World War. Then I am torn between two types. Maybe a Typ 12 PS?

Post by: grobmotorix on August 15, 2011, 02:22:05 PM
pre WW1 - yes

12 HP / PS / CV - no

You will not find it at wikipedia...

Post by: pnegyesi on August 15, 2011, 03:06:45 PM
No, I am looking at a book on Swiss cars. My other guess would be 15 PS Sports

Hm, how can we bring this to an end... ?

The thing is, that it has not a real model name, but a very simple official Martini designation.

If you can tell me the right year and either the designation or the correct number of CV/HP/PS, you´ll get the point.

Same source, obviously!

Very good.

After some research I think it was the smallest of three different Martini cars at the Jura Cup (La Tourne 1914).

So I think the "Der kleine Martini" could also be called Martini 5CV as it seems to have had a 5 horsepower engine.
