Post by: sichel on January 10, 2026, 01:51:06 PM
The usual standard questions, nothing else... ;)
So: vehicle manufacturer, model, coachbuilder and year of manufacture.

That's right, it's an AGA Type C 6/20 PS, but the bodywork is not from Lindner.

No, because

is correct.
Now all that's missing is the year of manufacture. fromwien has three attempts to guess it, locked.

1921?

No.

Post by: fromwien on March 04, 2026, 06:09:41 AM
Of course, 1921 was a very stupid answer: Karmann started mass-production of the AGA 6/20 PS Limousine from 1922 onwards. As they built up to more than 1.000 different AGA-units, it's quite hard to find the exact date of the puzzle car. Next trial: 1924?

You're on the right track, but not far enough yet...

1925?
Title: Re: si_940
Post by: sichel on March 04, 2026, 04:41:17 PM
Yes, it is a four-door 6/20 from 1925. I am enclosing a design drawing of the vehicle.
A year later, AGA went bankrupt. A few more vehicles were probably manufactured until 1929, but then it was finally over.
Enclosed is a picture of an interesting two-tone two-door model from 1924.

Thank you for the point
Obviously the 2-door body version, you've posted, has been called "Amsterdam" (see attachment)
