Description The oldtimer in this photo is (to the best of my knowledge) a Mercedes Benz 170V Cabriolet A - around 800 cars of that model were produced (should it be the B model then about 8000 models were built) between 1936 and 1940 when the various versions of the 170V were built.

With a total of nearly 72,000 models in various variants the 170V was the most successful pre-war (WW2 - just to clear it up for the nit-pickers ) cars built by Mecedes Benz.

Taken during the Oldtimer meet in Staufen (Germany) a few weeks ago.

Nice angle. Needs to be uploaded in black and white though. That would really fit the subject...
