The Horch 5Liter was the successor of the Horch 8 with 5-litre engine. The Horch 5-Liter was
very popular among film-stars and celebritys who didn't want to drive a Mercedes.

This particular one has a special body made by Erdmann & Rossi, a very famous coachbuilder at that
time. It sits on a shortened chassis of the Horch 853.
It is a recreation of the legendary Bernd Rosemeyer Horch 853A Stromlinien-Coupe "Manuela"

Pictures taken at the "2009 Technoclassica" in Essen, Germany
