Then by the 90’s, I lost interest in million dollar McLarens and whatever, so that’s it. A bunch of completely biased opinions of some magazine editors 15 years ago!

No radio, no AC, door pulls were straps I think.

1932

The manufacturer's name is still used to this day, though it's a sub-brand.

Hm.....

I think the engine output was nearer 200 bhp.

https://www.autoevolution.com/cars/mayb ... 932-80-v12

I did see another thread (strangely on FB and X by the same guy) that claimed they used a 550 bhp Zepplin engine in 5 of these cars. I still think that may be a little far fetched. Every other reference I have found states 200 bhp.
