Default The last Horch

I came across this article whilst searching for a mk2 gti 16v. A great story about a lost Horch finally found and taken back home to Ingolstadt.

The Last Horch

I can't wait to see it at the museum.

Just seen it! Superb story and superb video!

I reckon the museum ought to keep it on show like that for a good while longer before they go about restoring it.

Another video, with a very entertaining start. Don't you just love it when something so historical is found - can't beat the real thing, I guess.................
