Topic: Solved: GTE 246 - 'The Car of 2121' / 'Electric Touring Car Model 2121' (1921)

My source, which is a British magazine of January, 1921, simply refers to this drawing as 'The Car of 2021' but without any further information about it

Can you send me a PM with the name of the magazine?

Thanks for the PM! I think it's time to call this one solved. My source (German Automobil-Zeitung, 30 January 1921) cites to the same British magazine (Light Car & Cyclecar, 1 January 1921), yet refers to the vehicle as 'The Car of 2121' and identifies it as 'Electric Touring Car Model 2121'.

As you've found the original source (or at least the one cited to by my source), I'll accept that as authoritative and award you the point.

Here is what was published by Automobil-Zeitung. Please post an image of the Light Car & Cyclecar material if you can.

Apologies, I just re-read my source and realised it says '2121' as well!

No problem. Thread title updated.

We can forgive you for being 100 years out, which must be a record here...!
