This is a VERY popular misconception. The 115 refers to the Distributorship not a Dealer. Hahn sold cars to the Dealer, and the Dealer sold cars to a customer. Hahn may have had its own dealerships, but its primary purpose was to co-ordinate sales and service through its dealers. There are certain booklets of Distributors and Dealers that have lists of the dealers associated with a Distributor; usually about 40 or so. These booklets will show the Distributor number followed by the Dealer number.
115/000 is Hahn Automobilgroßhändel GmbH, the Zentralhändeler or Distributor
115/001 is Hahn Motorfahrzeuge GmbH, the dealer in Fellbach
115/003 is Baden Auto GmbH, the dealer in Freiburg
115/051 is Autohaus Wagenblast & Co, the dealer in Aalen
115/062 is Ludwig Gerstenmaier Automobile, the dealer in Baden-Baden
115/074 is Gebr. Gehringer, the dealer in Bad Mergentheim
115/078 is W & E Konrad oHG, the dealer in Brushsal
