Mystery car in The Netherlands

Jaap Bruynzeel writes: "The picture was taken in Bergen, The Netherlands in June 1921 near the entrance of a large property named 'De Karperton' designed by the renowned architect Jan Wils who also was responsible for the 1928 Olympic Stadion. Seated in the car the family Judell, wealthy coffeedealers form Amsterdam. In the rear of the car is Mr. Judell (with his elbow over the side) who commissioned  the property in 1917. The once wealthy jewish family had lost their assets in the crisis of the thirties and they had to sell the property,  but they remainded with the high influentials. Since short the De Karperton is again for sale, for the second time in a hundred years. "

What happened with the equally fabulous, enormous and unidentified tourer is not known. But it is special in about every aspect. And what's more the car is showing remarkable similarities with the earlier shown 'Austro-Daimler'  The Red Baron Mystery. We're looking forward to hear your opinion.
