Make and model please. We've had this car before, but this time it has a different bodystyle.

Eherardt-Szawe 10/50 HP, 1924....even if someone wonders if it actually is.

Yes, that's what I've got it down as - the point is yours, but are you saying that there is a question whether this is correct?  I klnow little or nothing about German cars of this era, and I hoped the caption was correct. Any information would be useful so that this puzzle doesn't get recorded for posterity as the wrong thing!

I told that someone is not sure about it because my source reports that there is no proof about and we have little news about this quite obscure maker. Perhaps Wendax knows something more!

Unfortunately I don't have any positively identified Ehrhardt-Szawe pictures. There is a unidentified picture on the SVVS site, but they aren't sure either. And we had a Reutter-bodied Ehrhardt (before the merger with Szawe) with similar looks before: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2011-39/solved-wendax-038-ehrhardt-1560-ps-stadt-coupe/

Thanks Wendax. I think the only thing I can do is amend the puzzle title and then leave things as they are.

If I recall correctly, I looked for an Ehrhardt-Szawe for my last group puzzle and couldn't find any picture that I was sure was one.
