Original Dixi Photograph of a Chummy now on eBay as a "1930" https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/165048379954?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l3160&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=6e66136820034b7389d1b1017bde55c7&bu=43060434130&ut=RU&exe=99065&ext=233695&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20210902052136&segname=11021&sojTags=ch%3Dch%2Cbu%3Dbu%2Cut%3Dut%2Cnqt%3Dnqt%2Cnqc%3Dnqc%2Cmdbreftime%3Dmdbreftime%2Ces%3Des%2Cec%3Dec%2Cexe%3Dexe%2Cext%3Dext%2Cexe%3Dexe%2Cext%3Dext%2Cosub%3Dosub%2Ccrd%3Dcrd%2Csegname%3Dsegname%2Cchnl%3Dmkcid

The radiator badge looks to be Dixi, not BMW-Dixi, so that would make it a 1928 car.

Agree. Strange way the wiring for the indicators leaves the scuttle. I wonder if there would be an ingress of rain water into the car over time.
Sensible Germans, fitting forward mounted headlights!
Whenever I see period photos of Dixi / BMWs I always think about what befell the occupants in the years to come - the little lad in the rear seat for instance.
