In the difficult postwar years, these microcars were meant to fill the gap between expensive, full-sized 'real' cars and scooters/motorcycles.
Some of these microcars - such as the BMW 600 - were a commercial success, whilst others struggled to reach double-figure production. Some were crafted using first-class engineering skills; others owed their existence more to enthusiasm than anything else ... Regardless, all are now very collectable and are often lovingly restored by their owners. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px Arial} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px Arial; min-height: 12.0px}
