1954 DKW F 91 Sonderklasse Cabriolet for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1954 DKW F 91 Sonderklasse Cabriolet is a used car showing 4,045 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Red with a Black interior.

For 49 years it lived in Berlin, which its German registration document proves, so it was there when the Wall went up in 1961. The last owner took the body off the chassis and restored the car between 2002 and 2006, and the care he put into it still shows.

Paperwork is limited, as it often is with owners of that generation. The photographs show a red cabriolet with a black hood, chrome hubcaps and overriders, and a clean engine bay. The car is announced as arriving at Gallery Aaldering, and its three-cylinder two-stroke makes the unmistakable sound of the type.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The DKW F 91 Sonderklasse uses the 896 cc two-stroke three-cylinder, mounted lengthwise ahead of the front axle, rated at 34 PS (25 kW) and a factory top speed of 115 km/h, with a column-shift four-speed gearbox with DKW's freewheel, driving the front wheels. Its body follows the F 9 that DKW had planned for 1940, and the grille has five bars where the Meisterklasse had nine. Karmann built 1,550 two- and four-seat cabriolets alongside 57,407 saloons and coupés.

FAQ

This DKW F 91 Sonderklasse in the European market

Can this DKW be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this DKW F 91 Sonderklasse cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €3,988 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €64,500, 1517% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1954 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

Who is selling this DKW F 91 Sonderklasse, and how does a purchase work?

Gallery Aaldering, a professional dealer in Brummen, Netherlands. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this DKW F 91 Sonderklasse be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Brummen, Netherlands, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this DKW F 91 Sonderklasse still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Gallery Aaldering before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the Netherlands?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.
