Absolutely correct although I can't confirm it's appearance at the 1930 Paris and London shows.
Another point for you.

This is the car on the London Motor Show 1930. There is reason to believe the same car was on the 1930 Paris Show (in the same colour scheme), on the 1931 Brussels Show (in all white) and on the 1931 Paris Salon (again in black and white but in a totally different colour scheme. No money being wasted by Austro-Daimler in what were very difficult economic times..
