Roll up, anyone else want to guess?
I have no idea about plastic small scale vehicles,but looking at them i would say they were french from the late sixties early seventies,the red tanker and the little grey lorry are the same maker whose logo is a w and a m on top of each other.
The other truck that looks a bit like a reliant ant is really a dkw camioneta auto union,the other plastic car has no marking except for circles on the bonnet which i guess makes it an auto union again or maybe an audi?

Three of the plastic cars are German Wiking models:

The green car is a "DKW Limousine" (Ref.120) from the mid 50s.
The Esso Tanker is a "Esso Supertankwagen" (Ref. 790) from around 1960.
The grey lorry is a "Tempo-Matador" (Ref. 340) from the late 50s.

I stand corrected Dave, I have both of the carts you show, I also have two more which are identical to your blue one, One is yellow and bears no makers name and the other one is a lighter blue and has Benbros on the base, I assume they are both Benbros.

Hi,

the green DKW is not made by Wiking.
The Wiking-DKW looks like the one on the picture.

Hi Dave,

I just asked a friend of me and he told me that the small red truck is a DKW made by Anguplas.
The green DKW might be from Märklin.
Could you please post a pic from the baseplate?
