From the very early days of motoring.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

This is a photo of the oldest car daro. A car with steam power. A car made in 1884.

It is a steam car. I have another year though.

1881 Thury-Nussberger Steam 3-Wheeler ?

Wendax

Yes, I've seen it referred to as Thury-Nussberger as well as Thury-Nussberg. As Thury himself named his friend Nussberg, we'll go for that. The year is not easy to fix: Thury and Nussberg started constructing the car in 1877 and continued improving it until 1892.

One more point for you.
