DKW Munga
Auto Union was created in the 1930s via the amalgamation of Audi, Horch, DKW and Wanderer, hence its now famous four-ringed badge. But of all the cars at the NEC of Auto Union descent, this one’s amongst our favourites: a rather splendid DKW Munga, an off-road utility vehicle produced between 1956 and ’68, powered by an 897cc three-cylinder engine. It proved popular with civilian and military buyers alike, with almost 47,000 examples sold. Oh, and in case you’re wondering, the name stems from 'Mehrzweck UNiversal Gelandewagen mit Allradantrieb', which translates as ‘multi-purpose universal cross-country car with all-wheel drive’.
