Ah, the Ascari A10. I'd say a car with a 220 mph top end is fast, well unless you compare it to a Veyron Super Sport.

We've gone from supercars to coach built Italian masterpieces in the last few days, but now its time to engage the "Wayback" machine. Who can identify this delightful critter?

Hint, when this was built, "remember the Maine" was still on people's lips.

Bingo! You nailed it again! The 1898 Lohner-Porsche, sure not as sexy as the later Porsche cars huh?

Would you favor us with something obscure?

Looks like we have a 1942-1944 Peugeot VLV built in occupied France, powered by a 48 volt electric motor they screamed along at 30kph, well "snailed along" is more like it.

You got it! I think the French mail service used a lot of them.
Your turn :)
