Ok an easier clue. In 1947 Tazio Nuvolari drove a car from this maker almost to a win.

Yes Cam's right; to be exact a 1947 Cisitalia Savonozzi 202 Streamliner.
By the way they are another reborn car maker planning new 2010 models see: http://www.cisitalia.com/

BTW there was Cistitalia Torino Model. The man behind the company was Piero Dusio (October 13, 1899 – November 7, 1975) a retired Italian soccer player, businessman and Grand Prix racing driver. Tazio Nuvolari the Italian GP champion drove a Cistitalia to second place in the 1947 Milli Miglia. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisitalia

Ok.. Something else that has always appealed to me ... Slightly less common.. although still pretty well known.. considering they had a massive 85kw, did 190km/h and weighed a mere 960kg..
