The oldest running car in the world! Named "La Marquise" after the Count de Dion's mother, this 127-year-old automobile had single-family ownership for 81 years and currently has only four owners from new. La Marquise was even a participant in the first automobile race in 1887. To be offered in Hershey on Friday, October 7, 2011, this historically significant motor car is certainly an opportunity not to be missed by serious collectors.
