The vendor is a semi-professional microcar broker, not selling parts of his collection as stated. He imports min. 50 cars per year from France where he owns a cottage and sells theses via three eBay accounts and other channels.

Thanks for that Barry.

I love to work out what the other cars that these people own by identifying the small bits in the corners of the picture. Like the Messerschmitt, a KVA and a Rolux, or is that a Spatz???

What do we think?

to the left is a KV MINI, the car with the stone capstan drive on the rear wheels.
Some plastic Sans Permis thing behind the Veloto  never mind, it is just a cabinet.  Is there really much of a difference though?
the cup in the car is from Disney's Snow White & the Seven Dwarves….

other listings show the cars Richard pointed out, but missed the white Mini-Comtessa

Snow White had a Messerschmitt but the Dwarves ended up with Chuggerboom after emigrating and getting associated with Penelope Pitstop. The Boulder brothers, Rock and Gravel, did have a tuned Peel prototype though. So a few Micronauts there.

A collector with always spare cars to sell, sounds a familiar profile. Its called trading.

The vendor has a nice website at www (dot) classicolino (dot) de

He obviously has good connections in France to buy these for very
little money and everytime he returns from his French holiday cottage
to Germany, he brings a trailer with 4-6 collectibles along.

Wonder how he manages to declare that as private collection rather
than taxable car trading?

Since the microcar museum had been auctioned, these sans permis
became extremely expensive here in Germany...
