AMERICAN versus ENGLISH CARS In 500-mile American classic race, run at Indianapolis, not one American car sold on this market was entered. Extract from Autocar, May 29, 1900. . _ America was busy crowing over the most expensive Autocar in the universe, an electric Victoria, for which W. K. Vanderbilt had just paid £IOOO. The American was quite ignorant that this particular form of ostentation had travelled still greater lengths in Europe, where the Chevalier de Khyff had recently obtained £2400 for one of his discarded Panhard racing cars.
