Let's try something a bit different. Do you know where was this picture taken? Can you identify the coachbuilder? A point is waiting for you!

Fёdor got it right. The Karmann HQ in 1917
Would you be interested in similar puzzles? Locations instead of actual cars?

I think we like anything related to cars here, especially as the pool of rare cars gets smaller with each puzzle that is solved!
