Well done!
From what I read, it was build for a promotional campaign for these tires, and I'm not sure if it was functional at all.

An 8-man tricycle of the late 1890s. It may have been a promotional vehicle for ZIM, the tire manufacturer.

O.K. - it is VIM, not ZIM.

But that´s definitly enough for a point!
