For further information, visit: www.rmauctions.com About Spyker Cars Beginning in 1875 as a coach builder, Spyker produced its first motorcar in 1898. From its earliest days Spyker cars have been known as powerful and exclusive, many of them establishing speed records. The company later built fighter aircraft and engines. The Spyker Company ceased trading in 1925, but its brand name and reputation for technologically advanced, exotic and dependable cars has been passed on to the new Spyker company and its cars. Built on five brand pillars - heritage, design, craftsmanship, performance and exclusivity - Spyker Cars started in 2000 as a Dutch manufacturer of handcrafted, premium sports cars. The racing and aviation heritage of the early cars has been carried over to contemporary Spykers, which also benefit from experience gained by participating in events like the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Every body panel and component of the Spyker is numbered to identify it as belonging to the car’s chassis number. The company’s slogan, introduced in 1914, “Nulla tenaci invia est via: For the tenacious, no road is impassable” continues to be used on its distinctive propeller and wheel logo. Spyker Cars is listed on the Euronet Amsterdam. Additional information can be found on Spyker Cars’ website: www.spykercars.com |
