What is it? # 106 (Update: La Licorne)
Update (sorry, during Easter weekend no Competition): "Well, at last this was an easy one! No less than 12 competitors came up with the right make which of course is La Licorne ( type: LO4 6 CV , according to many of you). The coachwork being a 'Vutotal' was also no secret to most of thiose. Especially while this car was to be seen only weeks ago in Reims and also in the French magazine "La Vie de l'Auto". A lot less competitors could tell us the coachwork was a true Labourdette product just like the coachwork we showed you last Monday. Still we had a handfull of right answers left. This time the year was decisive. Probably the difference is impossible to see, so you had to gamble, a little... Although several competitors had answers that came near and very near, the only perfect one came from Jean-Marie Guivarc'h (artist living in Le Mans...), he wrote: (1.make) Licorne - (2.coachwork) Coupé labourdette type Vutotal - (3.year) 1938 . Bravo, Jean-Marie congratulations!"
