Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:
In 2024 it is hard to imagine the slick suited executives in BMWs iconic cylinder shaped Munich HQ granting an import license to a man called Aldy and his company named after an eccentric engineer and inventor. However, thats exactly what they did in the 1930s, even allowing them to badge engineer and partly construct their prized automotive prodigy. Remarkable.This example is a wonderous example of this remarkable collaboration. It represents a coming together of Munichs sportiest rolling chassis with a hand crafted touring body by a company in Staines. One of just six prepared in this way, this could easily be the last of its species. Of course its not a concourse condition prize winner, but we are sure it could be. Its scarcity, charm and fascinating back story combine the makings of charmed future life.
