That should be Koch Frères from Paris, building a car following Saurer designs from 1899 to 1901.

I list pilots only if they 'build' a car or if it's the only way to 'identify' a car.

Then 10369

10369 is too close to your 10371 previous number.

Then let's go for 12222

PROTOS (2)

Your score: 54

Hopefully the first Protos is the one which is the known German brand from 1909-1926 and I assume the 2nd Protos is the one which existed between 1926-1933 when Siemens sold Protos to AEG and the Protos C1 was continued as the NAG-Protos

Not that...
(51)

Okay, is this the Protos which existed between 1909-1926?

Not that...
(48)

Apparently there was another Protos, a Formula 2 racecar in 1967.

If my answer is correct, then I go for 941.

That's why I'm here.
I use to estabilish a rule only to avoid a stall in the game.
If you want to discover a juicy maker, let's say Tucker (that is not, of course), you can just try a number near the end (16500) and then skip each one you do not like collecting -10 untill you'll reach it and the game is over.
Whit this rule if you hit the maker by luck, you collect what you 'earn', if you go near it (Joao?) you can help others BUT I'm updating the list and you can't always be sure of that...that's the only way I found to keep it going and it's the only rule.
The credits system is there just to keep it interesting...I thought you may be interested in each number even if you do not know it and with just 1 credit you have the chance to know what I found about...

To help you with your choices you can look at my post #2, where I keep taking note of each guess and each maker.
You can see that you already asked for #2009 (Blair-Forth) and 2048 is too close.  ;)
