Much though I should like this to be a 22CV, it isn't. Looking at the Rolls-Royce capture it appears to be a 15CV which has acquired the front wings/fenders of some German car (Barockengel?). |

1953+ 15 Six D 'Traction', better visible in /vehicle_253898-Rolls-Royce.html Very strange front, though... Built-in headlights (from a VW Beetle?), non-original indicators (probably from a Mercedes-Benz 220 [W187]. Edit: Sorry Chris, I hadn't noticed your comment while checking my ideas about the strange front .gif ";)") And yes, I thoiught about the BMW as well, but its headlights were more vertical and its indicator chromes much longer. -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 11:10:13 |

 Fair enough, Mike; I think we can settle for your description. (Though why the hell anyone would discard the TA's headlights for the useless ones from a Beetle I can't understand!) -- Last edit: 2009-10-26 11:18:35 |

But how should we list this... 'Germanised Traction' ?? |

No, leave it as it is. If anyone's in any doubt they can read our comments, no? |

In such a way, it looks a little bit like the swiss made Lagenthal on 15 Six basis...but of course it's not. Interesting transformation anyway .gif ":)") |

It looked very much like this Swiss version of the Traction. Maybe should have we indicated it in the 'Extra info' case. |
