Bugatti Type 41 Royale |
There is not a number one or a last one for they all are special. But we have to begin by, and so we have, this Mercedes Benz 38 250 produced in Germany at the beginning of the past century between 1928 and 1932. Only some 40 units of this collection piece ran, designed by Ferdinand Porsche when he still worked for Mercedes. Authentic and old like very few.
Hispano Suiza K6 Brandone Cabriolet |
The luxurious French Bugatti Type 41 Royale, made between 1929 and 1933, by three outstanding designers: Kellner, Weinberger y Ward; amongst all, this has been the most powerful of its epoch. Exclusive as a minority, only 6 units of this dashing car were produced. Today, it is one of the most unique and wanted cars in the world.
And we have yet another European creation on this illustrious list. In this case, the Hispano Suiza K6 Brandone Cabriolet, produced in Spain and France in the decade of the 30's during the past century. Exclusively designed by Etienne Brandone, some 200 units of this car, which was awarded many diverse prizes and won contests of elegance all over the world, ran.
One of the great ones is repeated, the French Bugatti Type-57 SC Atlantic, made between 1936 and 1938. Designed by Jean Bugatti himself, only three units of this car were reproduced, it's considered one of the most beautiful classics in the history of motoring.
Mercedes-Benz, now the 540K Special Roadster |
And to finish, we have Mercedes-Benz once more, this time with the 540K Special Roadster. This was the climax of high speed tourism cars, developed by Mercedes in the 30's. This was the fastest car of its time and one of the most luxurious and elegant of all times. This model has been one of the most expensive Mercedes sold so far.
