1956 Horch Sachsenring P240 It's a very rare car made in Zwickau (DDR) |

Beetween 155 and 1959 1382 of there were made, most of then as a sedan but there were also some four-door convertibles and same wagons. The vertical bars in the grille indicate this is one of the 246 pre-production cars built between january 1955 and december 1956. (There is an interesting article about these Sachsenrings in the German magazine "Oldtimer Markt", december 2001.) |

On the front of the car, you see the "H" from Horch |

I wonder how it ended up in West Berlin. |

@Gag: it's just a visitor from East Berlin. The plate is something Russian. I'll ask the other license-plate-freaks. It's obvioulsy something really rare. -- Last edit: 2008-01-31 18:46:25 |

I asked because this car is used by characters in the film (Soviet officers, IIRC). I very much doubt that the Soviet military mission in Berlin would let Paramount Pictures borrow one of its cars. -- Last edit: 2008-01-31 19:29:41 |

Hmmm. I was thinking about the Allied Military Mission, too, but the plate confuses me. But I haven't found a pic of the earliest versions. The late ones I know. By the way: an orignal plate from the Allied Military missions, for the most license-plate-collectors it's the holy grail. Last year I've tried to catch a Soviet one at eBay. My 1200 $ weren't enough, it was sold for 2000 $. |

If you can't identify the plate, it's probably a bad fake. ![]() |
