VR Staff

This 1949 Delahaye 175 S, with flamboyant Saoutchik roadster coachwork, was originally custom built for Sir John Gaul and featured Saoutchik’s “Narval” nose, inspired by the protruding tusk of the Narwahl whale. From Gaul the Delahaye was next owned by the British bombshell actress Diana Dors.
