EDIT 13.11.2012: IT IS NOT A DARRACQ

It is indeed an early Darracq.

LOCKED for you.

Do you have a model name?

Is it simply a Darracq 'Perfecta'

If not, please unlock and let others have a try

Ooooohhh, sorry - I´ve mixed something up, when I´ve replied to this post:

Daracq  1902

I wasn´t at home when answering the last few posts and was sure it was a Darracq, but it isn´t. :bag:

I´ll unlock it again and give this hint:

The make starts with a "D", too...

Sorry D-type... :-\

It looks too small for their four-cylinder Paris-Madrid race car. How about the first front-engined De Dion-Bouton from 1902?

Well, the year should be O.K.

It is not the Paris-Madrid car.

I have a name, but - BIG HINT - I´m not sure if it´s just a name of its body style...
