Same mess, different year

Traffic jams are not only today's problem. Just have a look at this fine mess waiting to cross the frontier near Basel in Switzerland. At first sight all cars look French, although we could also spot an Opel Rekord, a Mercedes-Benz 170 en a very early VW. But we have trouble recognizing the sports car with the girl standing in it. Our first thoughts are Delahaye, Delage or maybe even a Bugatti? Do you know? Then tell us! (postcard collection Karel Vermeer, with thanks to Eduard Hattuma)
