Some of your members were querying the authenticity of the Bugatti T101 Exner as a Bugatti as obviously it really has no true Bugatti features past or present.
Whilst the Veyron to-day is a masterpiece not only of automotive engineering but also of utilising the highest quality products for it's ultra classy interior and trimmings, some of it's predecessors were rather weird.
Even prior to Ettore's death and the resurrection of the firm with the launch of the EB110 there were some very strange models on the list and I thought it would be of interest to you to see some of the ancestry of the world's now most expensive car.
Take a look at this lot:
Trippel SG6-41 Saumur (built by the Germans in WW2)
T68 1940 - 1945
T73A 1947
T251 1955
OTI (125cc) 1959
ID90 1989
