Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Luggage rack. The catalog notes the following priceless Messerschmitt fact: By reversing the electric starter the KR200s two stroke engine could be made to run backwards, thus providing four reverse gears and the hair raising possibility of 60mph going backwards! Which is probably no less safe than driving one of these in the normal direction. Long stored but sound and complete.

Market commentary

Well bought and with some attention to the lawnmower size engine and cosmetics this could well be a $10 12,000 car.
