Market commentary
One of the pincles of Twenties luxury and engineering, with power from a gigantic 9.2 litre inline six. Sold for a good bit over high estimate and still needs to be taken to a shop to have the motor unstuck and sorted. Comparable with a Rolls Royce at the time and regarded by some as even better and built to higher standards, the price realized reflects a discerning audience who recognized its quality and rarity.
