Skoda 1101 sport Le Mans 1950

That was quick!
I guess it's appeared on some French websites?

I don't know about that nomenclature though; although I have seen it referred to as an 1100 it's just generally called a Skoda Sport Le Mans, and it dates from slightly earlier than 1950 (1949, although I've even seen 1948 mentioned).
Still, we won't split hairs; 1 point is yours!

OK, but pretty sure it was built before then..
I'll settle for 1949, which is what most sites say.
