British Investors Resurrect German Coach Builder Wiesmann From The Dead

Even though Wiesmann, the German company from Dulmen, was famous across the world, it couldn't sell enough cars to stay in business. As a result, the fancy gecko-shaped factory closed its doors for good in 2014.

 However, Wiesmann co-founder Friedhelm Wiesmann says that his baby was bought by a couple of British investors. Who is it – Ariel, Aston Martin or McLaren? Nope, not even close. All we know is somebody called... Berry and he purchased the firm, planning to re-start production in 2016.

Can anyone say Old Jaguar Knockoff (except it's ugly)? A huge waste of time and money. My opinion ...

I agree it's hideous, but the Kardashians would love it.

Morgan has been around twice as long as Wiesmann. If they can't get a break, Wiesmann for sure won't.

What I would give for an Aero 8.

I hope this pic isn't representative of the best work... and that their best work is not behind them. Even so, they look better (to me) that a lot of the stuff I've been seeing recently on Autospies.
