only Alpha Le Mans I am aware of would be the Porches of 198x, mine
was way before that.
My car pre-dates the Alfa Le Mans by 4 years
The Aston-Martin Le Mans is the correct time frame, I think the
first Aston Le Mans was 1933 could be 1932, I am too lazy to look it up.
A Singer Le Mans of course is what I own, there were at least 3
British manufacturers using the name "Le Mans" in 1934 and one French
manufacturer. The first Singer Le Mans was before the Aston-Martin
or the same year if Aston came out in 1932 with the name. Bentley's
Le Mans was 1934 or 1935, I have seen 34 Bentley Le Mans but I was
also told the first use of the name officially was 1935.
