This Messerschmitt KR200 is a quirky and instantly recognisable classic three-wheeled microcar, which benefits from an extensive restoration in recent years. It is powered by a 191cc Sachs single-cylinder two-stroke engine, driving the rear wheel via a four-speed manual transmission. This KR200 has been restored over a five-year period, with the original engine and gearbox being fully rebuilt. The odometer indicates 28,723 miles, which the seller believes to be the genuine total. Build year: 1958 This KR200 is finished in a characterful ‘Export’ specification two-tone white and red colour scheme, over a red vinyl-trimmed interior, featuring contrasting white piping. It rides on a set of 8-inch steel wheels finished in red, with polished front hubcaps, and fitted with Mitas B13 whitewall front tyres. Equipment includes a yoke-style steering wheel, elasticated side pockets, a central driver’s position, and a fold-up rear bench seat. The cockpit canopy is clear with sliding side windows, and the car retains the factory-style instrumentation and switchgear. It is accompanied by a rare and complete suite of period documentation: original FMR GmbH advertising and specification pamphlet, original owner’s manual, and the official ‘Der Große Karo-Tip’ workshop and owner’s guide. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: very minor blemishes in the paintwork, consistent with its age and usage since the 2019 bare-metal respray, and the interior is reported to present as-new, with new seats, carpets, door cards, canopy, and windows fitted to factory-correct specification. The most recent NSW Registration Safety Inspection test was in 2024, and is understood to have resulted in a clean pass. The last maintenance was in 2019 at an indicated 28,650 miles during the full restoration process carried out by the previous owner, encompassing: the rebuilding of the original engine and gearbox, the replacement of all wear components including tyres, cables, and mechanical linkages, the installation of a new battery and gas cap, and a full re-trim and canopy replacement This Messerschmitt KR200 is an impressive restored example of a cult classic microcar, retaining its original drivetrain and finished to factory specifications. The refurbishment was executed with attention to detail, preserving its unique charm while ensuring it is mechanically well-sorted and visually striking. Offering a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most distinctive vehicles of the post-war period, it would make a fascinating and crowd-pleasing addition to any collection.
