It's just one guess at a time until the guess has been answered by the puzzler.
If all puzzlers were limited to only one guess per car hardly any puzzles would ever get solved!
Thanks, it won't happen again  :)

Moving this one to the Pro's for a week to see if they can solve it; if not it's going to the Black Hole..

If you can send me some proof you're right I'll give you a point and move this to Solved.

I´ll take a picture as soon as possible, because I left my books in dad´s house, as I don´t have space enough in my apartment

OK.  You can still solve it even if it's in the Black Hole - except you'll get double points for that!
So I'll move it.

Egli, from Switzerland

"Generalimporteur für diese Fahrzeuge in Europa war der Händler Egli aus der Schweiz. Während die Wagen in den Staaten ab $ 32.990 kosteten, konnte man sie bei Egli ab 174.600 DM haben."

Egli was just an importer of these cars to Europe. The cars were known as CMC (Classic Motor Carriage) and were never rebadged as Egli.

OK, but Classic Motor Carriage was tried in Reply #4 and was deemed incorrect...
However, see also my Reply #11 regarding the "Tiffany by Classic Motor Carriages" which was also deemed incorrect, in which I said I reckon the photo posted of one of those was in fact the very same car as the puzzle photo, but it cut no ice...

Egli is more famous by their fantastic motorcycles. I´m not a motorbike expert, but if I´m not wrong, they produced the speediest motorcycles in the world at some time.
