Washing machine quickly stowed away, wheelbarrow simply shoved on top – the low-side flatbed soon found its supporters. Thanks to this transport advantage, the Tempo Matador also enjoyed a rapid increase in demand, because the low chassis made loading easy for its owner. With its basic cab, the Tempo Matador therefore appears as a “silent hero” of the Economic Miracle. The WIKING model – typical of the 1950s – comes with its own wooden crate. With the low-side flatbed, the Tempo Matador was highly prized, because it was pre-destined for typical transport duties – made possible by the Vidal & Sohn Tempo plant in Hamburg-Harburg. Today, the Matador is considered a legend of a van because in the post-war years, thousands of companies made their way into the Economic Miracle with the Tempo.
