Description
A re-appraisal of artist engineer Ettore Bugatti and his cars. He built only 7,800 cars between 1910 and 1939, but these are much sought after today. This book charts the beginnings of the famous marque, the cars that brought it fame from the Type 35, which was one of the most successful racing cars of all time to the massive Royale, only six of which were ever built, and chronicles the make's revival which began in Italy in 1988.
