Authors: Dr. Dieter Günther, Robe de La Rive Box and Max Stoop
Published in 1992 by autovision-verlag, Hamburg, Gerrmany
ISBN 3-9802766-2-7
194 pages, hardbound. B&W and color photos

Though Autopuzzles proved that not all Swiss-built cars are included in this nice tome, but if someone is interested in Swiss motoring history, this is one of the books which is mandatory. (I'll introduce the other a bit later).

Both road-going and racecars are included. Prototypes, design studios, home-built cars (though not all of them  ;) ), coachbuilders and other specials are described in great detail.

You may know Sbarro, Felber or Monteverdi, but it's nice to see so many details on Ghia-Aigle, Graber, Albar et. al.

Max Stoop was a contributor to Automobil Revue  (I believe a one-time editor as well, but I am not sure), while Rob de la Rive Box was a renowned motoring writer.

I've been looking for a copy of this book for ages.  If anyone knows where I might find one, for a sensible price I will be hugely grateful. Thanks.
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

I've been looking for it too, but it seems there are only a couple of copies on Amazon and ebay at that price... :-\

I´d look for this book in a reasonable price for years, since I didn´t find one with a nice price I quit and bought by a premium price, but it really worths every cent.

:)
I got it for only € 15,- today (€ 10,- + € 5,- shipping) and I'll receive it in a few days.
If it's surprisingly not worth the hype I'll sell it here for a very reasonable price, so, stay tuned! ;D

It IS a good book, but far from being complete if you know autopuzzles.com...

And 15 EUR is a very reasonable price, indeed!

I search for this book at a normal price. Your help would be much appreciated.
