1949 Delahaye Type 178 Drophead Coupe


Elton John's former 1949 Delahaye car
Finally to round out my visit the The Petersen Automotive Museum, it has to be an absolutely fabulous car.

Regarded as one of the most sophisticated European automobiles of the immediate post-war era, this striking Delahaye was formerly owned by international music artist Elton John.

There are many more vehicles on display at the museum than I've featured here, so if you're ever in L.A. and stuck for something to do pop along, as I was pleasantly surprised by my visit.
