Württembergische Motorfahrzeugwerk Rottenburg (WMR) was established by Wilhelm Jeckel in 1929. Jeckel died in an accident towards the end of that year, but production continued until 1931, when the company failed.
Only 35 machines left the workshop, but they were very high quality machines fitted with Blackburne and Kürchen engines. Their 500cc sports model was capable of 120 km/h.
