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?

Not the lesneys !

Not Dinky or the very nice cij coach (which is a gem but not what i was thinking about)
There are only five cars left in the box,i will see if anyone can name the maker of the three gems

The log cart and the blue horsedrawn cart are both Benbros

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.

Thanks for the info Kay !!

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?
