Article - Cars - Old Bugatti Racing
2008 Winton Historic (32nd) Victoria | Car Advice | Reviews: "Bugatti Bonanza for Winton Historic
During the 1920s and 30s, Grand Prix Bugattis experienced unparalleled success around the world and have been credited with winning more Grand Prix events in their day than any other make during the long history of motor racing.

Bugatti cars achieved many thousands of victories in just a few decades. The little Bugatti Type 13 famously swept the top four positions in the Grand Prix de Voiturette at Brescia, Italy in 1921 giving rise to the name ‘Brescia’ for the model.
The 1924 Bugatti Type 35 is probably the most successful racing car of all time with over 2,000 wins. Bugatti’s final racing success at Le Mans is well remembered, Jean-Pierre Wimille and Pierre Veyron won the 1939 race with just one car and meagre resources.
Bugatti racing cars were also instrumental in helping to establish the fledgling motor sport industry in Australia. In a six year period between 1928 and 1933, half of the first three placings in Australian Grand Prix events went to Bugattis and they won outright four years in a row."

Buggati in Service Station
We pulled up next to this in a service station car park. It's an old Bugatti I think. The young couple who were driving it had helmets and goggles on. Notice the novelty luggage space, hanging the bags outside the car. We were hoping to catch them setting off, to see what it looked like and how it sounded. Sadly they had already gone when we got back from the loo. Also check out the angle of the wheels :)
