Name that car
Re: Name that car
I do remember the 6 wheel "Sonic", a promotion vehicle by Wolrace. Not a clue what this might be, Noble??

Re: Name that car
No idea. Cannot zoom in on bonnet badge sufficiently.
However, power lines and house roof slope suggest to me somewhere sur Le Continent.
Could it be a Spyder?

Re Ian's last central headlight car - Tatra T77, mid 1930s.
Here is an interesting Youtube clip accompanied by some stirring music - Carl Orff's Carmina Burana.

Re: Name that car
FAB 1 is the only 6-wheel car I've seen in the metal.
It was for sale for £8,000 in Exchange and Mart, in about 1969.
Based on a Bedford bus chassis.
At one time, it was reported that Rolls-Royce tried to buy it in order to scrap it.
The tax disc read, "Imitation Rolls-Royce."

Re: Name that car
Strange to see a 6-wheeler look normal compared to the car parked behind it!
I loved the Loadrunner CX, which was designed to speed a ton of newspapers from one European capital to another, at very high speed, through the night. Can you imagine one of these passing you at 100mph in the early hours - the News must get through!

Re: Name that car
Re the gorgeous blue coupé - the symbol on the grille means that, unlikely as it may seem, it must be based on a DKW. (DKW used the same symbol as Audi (interlinked rings) as it symbolised 4 companies that had merged). As I have never seen it before I'm guessing it's one of those odd models that originated in a special market like South America.
