Mrs Liselotte Hebmüller died on Friday,17.5.2009 in the age of 92 years. She was a very interesting lady with a lot of storys about the Hebmüller family and Hebmüller factory. A history book is closed for ever! Enclosed a pic from Mrs Hebmüller from 2008 after her ninetieth birthday. [ATTACH]3149[/Attach]

Very sad news- the end of a dynasty you could say. However, she and her family have left behind an amazing legacy. Who would have thought back in 1949 that the production of 700-750 'people's cars' would have led to so much interest and enthusiuasm nearly 60 years after they rolled off the production line??!
