RE: Audi Munga
During the first war Audi was forced to produce vehicles for the war effort, and then after the war the recession was also a tremendous problem for the company. Therefore the founder August Horch left the management in 1920. The company managed to get through the hard times from 1927 to 1930, but in 1931 the management recognized that only a union with other vehicle manufacturer could keep Audi alive. At that time the AUTO UNION was founded, the members were DKW, HORCH, WANDERER and AUDI. The new companies insignia to show the union of the four companies was the now familiar 4 rings , which are still used by Audi today.

That's a DKW Munga, not an Audi. The rings are either photoshoped on or added after the fact.

When VW acquired Auto Union it stopped production of the DKW Munga and then brought the Audi name to the forefront. It replaced the Munga with the Iltis. Audi never produced a Munga.
