About Quiz #393: 1923 Benz Tropfenwagen

That was easy! Twenty one good or partly good answers. Well we expected this in a way but it was heartwarming to see which details came in. Most important of course is the fact that the rer engiens car in fact was the grandfather of the Silver Arrows and todays Formula 1 cars. 

Check back the results and be sure to read the comments of Barrie Down, Kieran White, Yannick Garcia, Stuart Penketh and Kevin Atkinson (see also the fab photos from Austin Harris' collection).  There is much top learn form their answers. So it was a sheer impossible task to judge between the big choice of very good answers and say who was best. However... we asked you to come up with nitty-gritty details that you can't pick up anywhere which many of you did. We mentioned the amazing fact that the car has white wall tires. And Yannick Garcia was the only one to present - together- with a nice detailed answer, also the manufacturer and size of the white walls (Continental Cord)... which made us decide to point him out as winner. Congratulations Yannick, with three wins you are now part of the select group of  pre-war jurymembers. 

Next week a new chance. And today a nasty post-war Puzzle...or is it a Mystery ?
