What's on with Weiss?

W.M. stands for Weiss Manfred and that was already a guess and I believe the question "does it exist?" covered Rába :)

Is there any online-training on the subject: "History of the Hungarian vehicle industry"?  :shakehead:
Title: Re: PN #1648
Post by: pnegyesi on July 06, 2022, 12:47:13 AM
Yes, in Hungarian, see my signature :) In English there is my book, Cars made in Hungary but that is mostly post-WW2 and you can find bits and pieces in the Georgano encyclopedia and in other encyclopedias.
This car is mentioned many times, but I recently realised that several details were wrongly described. Hence the puzzle :)

Röck?
Title: Re: PN #1648
Post by: pnegyesi on July 13, 2022, 12:29:51 PM
no, Röck stoppped automobile production in 1913 and this one is from the early 1920s.

No problem. You did most of the work - good job.

It was called the Turán - after an Asian region where some Hungarian researchers claim the Hungarians were originated from.
