1957 MESSERSHMITT KR200 Chassis 62021 French registration Exceptional drawing Good condition. 35 000 / 40 000€ After the Second World War, Fritz Fend, an engineer mobilized in the Luftwaffe, developed a small tricycle designed to re-engineer Germany. Produced from 1947 onwards by Fend, the tricycle evolved progressively until 1953. In that year, Messerschmitt, no longer involved in aircraft construction, welcomed the project and launched production of the little vehicle under the name KR175. In 1955, the KR200 appeared, an evolution of the 175, equipped with a Sachs 2-stroke, 200 cm3, 13 hp engine. Able to propel the car up to 130 km/h, the KR200 was the most popular version. The example we're presenting is a 1957 KR 200. We were able to trace its history back to 1972. That year, it was registered in the Sarthe region of France. This first owner kept it until 1988. That same year, it was acquired by an enthusiast from Indre et Loire. The current owner acquired it in 1991, through the Gran Turismo garage in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. This Messerschmitt appears to have been fully restored and is in good condition. As it hasn't done much touring recently, it will need to be put back on the road. Unusual in this version with its plexiglass bubble, this Messerschmitt bears witness to a bygone vision of the automobile. 1957 MESSERSHMITT KR200 Chassis number 62021 French registration Exceptional drawing Good condition. 35 000 / 40 000€ After the Second World War, Fritz Fend, an engineer serving in the Luftwaffe, developed a small tricycle designed to re-engineer Germany.
