Plastic body with cutout windows with molded bumpers. VW hood emblem and 16 air louvers under the split window, no chassis. Identification mark: inside body has reversed contours of the front hood. Plastic wheels are snapped onto the body with metal axles. Often wrongly mistaken for a PLASTICUM VW. Used as promotion material for the VOSS Margarinewerke. But also seen as promotion material for TITZE, KORONA as well as for MARGARINE UNION. Titze as well as KORONA was a coffee substitute brand (coffee based on figgs!) from Austria. So they all used the same toys to promote their products!

Just to note:  There are undocumented rumors (by a former employee of Manurba) that Manurba may have produced these Split Window VWs.
