Very beautifull red and white car.
By what I read in the previous post, it is an Auto Union manufactured in Soviet Europe after the war, is it so?
Hugs!

Hi. It was a very big mess after the war. Germany was split more or less in half. Some Auto Union facilities left on eastern side were took over by Russians and East German government. There they started production of the pre-war cars as IFA F8 and F9. IFA F9 was built in East by IFA and West by DKW.Very similar story involves BMW which became EMW on the eastern side.
Regards!
