If you don't mind, I would like to confirm some of what we have covered in case I have misunderstood something. Are each of these statements correct?
- The company was founded and began producing cars sometime between 1920-1923.
- The company stopped producing cars sometime between 1932-1935.
- The company only produced two models.
- The company only produced cars with either 2-cylinder or 4-cylinder motors.
- The company did not produce 3-wheeled vehicles.
- One car by this company has appeared on AP in the past.
- The company is also listed on European Wikipedia, German Wikipedia, and another well-known website.
- According to your source and European Wikipedia, the company was based in Paris.
- According to the previous AP puzzle, German Wikipedia, and the other well-known site, the company was based in a city other than Paris.
Thank you for reviewing these!
As a new question: Other than the city, are there other major discrepancies among the sources mentioned? For example, do the sources provide conflicting information on production dates, models produced, available engines, etc?
Various sources indicate a plus, minus 1 year difference in production 1921-1934 (35) year, although the article of 1920.
The car published on the forum is also another name, was the last model of this manufacturer, I think it was a one-time one.
I think the company at the beginning of its activity produced small series of cyclecar, and then produced mainly disposable
The last car was not released in Paris
