Hi Bela
Not wanting to put words into Ian's mouth, but in Austin Seven terms 'recently' can be any time in the last 30 (if not 50) years, it really means it didn't start out like that and so 'originality' or the cars true origins are more difficult to prove.
Best of luck with registering. From what I have read here previously with people trying to register one off specials with little documentation, you cannot beat knowing someone who has done it before in your local system, irrespective of the base car. So if you can link in with someone in Germany with some personal hints and tips for things to emphasise and things not to raise, then you will be in as better place to start.
