No photoshopping this time, just an original picture of a beautiful sports car. Low-built with excellent road-holding and a very advanced engine. No expenses were spared during its development as the founder of the company who made these cars, had made its fortune manufacturing railway sleepers. It was designed by an engineer who had also had a hand in the development of a certain Spanish-Swiss automobile. Several cars of this make competed at Le Mans, but without great success, there was only one win in the 3-litre class. Despite the financial backing, technical advancement was slow and by the time the model was fully developed, depression struck and the company went out of business. What we want to hear from you is of course the make, the name of its founder and the name of the engineer. More information is always welcome, of course, but please use no more than 100 words. See 'Read More' for the rules and read them carefully as we have added a new rule. Then send us your answer before Monday, August 12 by using the 'Add comment' box below. Enjoy your weekend!
