I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Samba was just a nickname, never an official one.

Samba was used in VW T2 brochures in the UK, along with Samba badging in the vehicles, but happy to concede to last Bogdan post if others not in agreement.

OK from me - I agree Samba was used in the UK.

Thanks Nicanary, but sorry to have spoilt your Bogdan post.

Not sure we can have that; can only have 2 consecutive posts of the same marque but this would make 3

So we have to revert to oko's DKW Schnellaster.
That's going to be a difficult one!
10 of these vans were assembled and marketed in Finland under the  brand-name Donau-Sisu; the question is, were they called Donau-Sisu Schnellaster or just Donau-Sisu?  I can't quite get to the bottom of it!  One survives but I haven't been able to find a picture of it to see if it wears the Schnellaster name..

If it is acceptable, then I give you the Donau Junior (I think we've had the DKW Junior....)
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Carnut

That's good!  But who knows if my Donau-Sisu is OK or not?
If it was not acceptable I was going to post (which I still can if we can't move on to the Donau Junior...) that the DKW van was also assembled in Argentina, where I understand it was marketed as the Auto Union Schnellaster Combi..

So which is it to be?  Have we moved on to the Donau Junior or do we follow the other path which would put us currently on the Auto Union?!

I don't think the Sisu-Donau was really called Schnellaster, but how about its successor, the Spanish-built Auto Union-DKW Schnellaster?
