Voisin tend to be engineering orientated, rather like Bugatti, and can be 'boxy' as a consequence - often found with 1920s Art Deco graphics relieving their utilitarian appearance. The one carrossier bringing Voisin into 1930s fashion being Saliot.

P.S.  The name is SALIOT.

John, you're picking the Best of the Best! The Voisin is another little-known high-end beauty. Elegant and purposeful.

Beautiful car. The only model I have of a Voisin is a 1/43 scale 1934 Aerodyne C25 by IXO. Hard to miss a Voisin with their fender support rods.

I've just been reading about him on wikipedia. Your Major Pitt sounds like quite a character.

@jkuvakas Stunning automobile, but I don’t think I could see that far to drive it! Shocked

@charles-rockett, great escapist reading, formulaic plots but, somehow, Cussler keeps it interesting. Cussler has several Voisins.
