It was a Land Rover 'style' vehicle from the mid 1960's. It was only offered in RWD and had a Skoda engine.
Let me know if you'd like a larger photo.

No not a Benz but from the same part of the world. In fact the car was developed by an insurance dealer in an old spinning mill in Bernbeuren.

I tried everything on google and can't find anytbing. Tried searching for the manufacturer using the badge, but alas nothing. Looks kind of like a Chapparel but wasn't one of those either. I also thought some sort of vw from the badge being a w with a v type shape theough it. I am stumped.
