There are 2 or 3 genuine examples of this model still existing. Count De Dion dove around Paris on one during the German occupation. His driver, (or, properly in this case, chauffeur) was on the run from the Germans at the time. I'll see if I can find the photo and check the facts. It might even be the car that's now on sale.
