targhediferro · January 27, 2013, 04:37:32 PM

I guess...Renfert, 1924.

La Vigne?

DeAutogids · January 27, 2013, 05:16:24 PM

There's quite a lot of those out there. Is it from from the North of Germany?

grobmotorix · January 28, 2013, 12:35:20 PM

It´s been definitly built in the southern half of Germany.

To be more precise: it´s been built in Bavaria.

targhediferro · January 28, 2013, 04:50:37 PM

Is it a Diana, from Munich, 1922?

grobmotorix · January 28, 2013, 05:01:26 PM

No.

And it´s not from Munich.

targhediferro · January 29, 2013, 02:33:52 PM

Is it the Juho, 1922, built by Julius Hoflich from Furth, Bayern?

grobmotorix · January 30, 2013, 11:39:30 AM

No, but you´re very, very close - geographically...
It´s from the second biggest town in Bavaria.

DeAutogids · January 30, 2013, 02:39:50 PM

Nuremberg, so Premier?

targhediferro · January 30, 2013, 03:34:37 PM

Or perhaps an Omega.

grobmotorix · January 30, 2013, 03:38:07 PM

No, sorry - none of those.

DeAutogids · January 30, 2013, 05:02:14 PM

Maurer?

grobmotorix · January 30, 2013, 06:10:12 PM

LOCKED for you!

But now I need just some more details.

A year - a name?

DeAutogids · February 01, 2013, 03:27:46 AM

I assume the car is from around 1923, 1924, when Ludwig Maurer of Maurer-Union and Maurer motorcycle fame build a small car with a two cylinder two stroke engine.

grobmotorix · February 01, 2013, 11:18:16 AM

Yes, this is enough to award you a point!

Between 1923 and 1924 Maurer made an attempt to enter the automotive world again with this cute little car "Typ 3/10 Kleinauto" prototype - but it never made it into production.

targhediferro · February 06, 2013, 01:25:19 PM

I made some other researches, and I found that this little car built by Maurer in 1923 (perhaps just two cars), had a 2 cilinders flat, two stroke engine, 2,6 cv, and chain transmission to rear axle.
Ludwig Maurer took parts also in another firm, the Maurer-Union between 1900 and 1910, and some of his little cars, were built in Great Britain under licence by Dougill of Leeds.

grobmotorix · February 06, 2013, 01:28:25 PM

Yes, you´re completly right.
