DESCRIPTION AND OTHER INFORMATION

1994 Special Built Type 55 Bugatti
  Hand Built Replica

For over 60 years I have been selling both new and Pre-owned Rolls Royces, Bentleys and other legendary motorcars from this same location. I have the honor of offering this one of a kind motorcar. This hand crafted masterpiece started out as a 1/16th scale model but ended up a 1/1 scale moving work of art. The builder was a Bugatti enthusiast/historian and he took extensive measurements and pictures of two original Bugatti numbers 55215 and 55211. It took close to 10 years to build as a majority of it was built by hand including the steel chassis, wood bulkhead, side panels, braces and body panels. Molds were made for the bi directional fiberglass fenders which were in keeping of the sweeping contour flow of the Bugatti fender design. Other types of fiberglass were used on other body panels depending on the strength need. All of the woodwork was hand made and he cut down the tree that made the steering wheel. The engine is a Ford 4 cylinder, 2000c.c. with automatic transmission. There are certain features that had to be added to make it street legal like seat belts, front & rear directional signals and license plate mounts. For his own pleasure he mounted an AM/FM radio under the driver’s seat for his long road trips. There are many photographs of the construction process that are included along with service manuals. Adhering to the strict regulations and requirements of the State of Illinois this motorcar was given a new VIN by the Secretary of State of Illinois, SOS 301 977 ILL. In my 60 years in the motoring business I have bought and sold many rare motorcars and this particular one I rate as one of the most stimulating. Just imagine while driving around in this moving work of art, the dedication of 10 years to fulfill a dream.

Watch the first Bugatti Chiron media ride-along

Thu, Jun 2 2016

Bugatti has been ramping appearances for its new Chiron hypercar since it debuted earlier this year at Geneva. Last weekend, during the Nurburgring 24, that meant giving out the very first media ride-along. Our friends at CarThrottle got to go for a spin around the Nurburgring in the 1,500-horsepower Chiron, and their chauffeur was none other than Bugatti CEO Wolfgang Durheimer. The 13-minute video covers plenty about the new car before climbing into the cabin with Durheimer, who talks through the start procedure and the detailed controls on the steering wheel. He also talks top speed, telling CarThrottle that the Chiron's Guinness World Record attempt won't come until 2018. We're going to be waiting a bit. After a lengthy chat, the pair set out on the track, escorted by a Bentley Bentayga. But at Bergwerk, Durheimer opens a gap and proceeds to punch it. Hard. It's difficult to comprehend the acceleration from watching a video, but hearing the angry whistle of the four turbochargers and the brutal upshifts give a sense of how much power is being deployed. Needless to say, he has no trouble catching up to the Bentley. Later on, Durheimer runs the Chiron up to around 200 miles per hour on the Dottinger Hohe straight. Related Video:

Volkswagen posts quarterly profit despite drop in sales

Thu, Oct 29 2020

Volkswagen returned to profit in the third quarter as surging Chinese demand for luxury cars helped offset a 1.1% drop in vehicle deliveries due to the pandemic, sending its shares as much as 3% higher on Thursday. The German automaker's return to the black comes amid spiking coronavirus cases in Europe that led governments in France and Germany to order their countries back into strict national lockdowns on Wednesday. "The coronavirus remains a central problem," Volkswagen Chief Financial Officer Frank Witter said in a conference call with reporters. "This situation now is anything but relaxed." But Witter said the group expected the economic recovery to continue and did "not anticipate any nationwide lockdowns in larger markets." Witter said the takeover of U.S. truck maker Navistar International by Volkswagen's trucking unit Traton was an important acquisition, but the "current economic climate will not make this easy." Volkswagen reiterated it expects to post a profit for the full year, saying its business "recovered noticeably" in the third quarter as sales in China of premium vehicles, including Audi and Porsche sports cars, rose 3%. The quarterly performance was also aided by a series of cost-cutting measures launched earlier this year. Volkswagen said its net liquidity rose to 24.8 billion euros from 18.7 billion at the end of the second quarter. Excluding one-time items, third-quarter operating profit was 3.2 billion euros ($3.8 billion), down from 4.8 billion euros a year earlier, but up from a second quarter loss of 1.7 billion. In a note to clients, Jefferies analyst Philippe Houchois described the results as a "solid performance with strong cash, but relatively muted in the context of the (auto) sector recovery." Last week, German rival Daimler reported a record 24% jump in Chinese demand for its Mercedes-Benz cars, boosting its margins in the third quarter. Italian-American Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Peugeot manufacturer PSA Group both also posted solid results this week. Witter said Volkswagen could not say for sure whether it would meet EU CO2 emissions targets this year, adding "it will be a tough race." At 1030 GMT, Volkswagen shares were up 2.9% at 129.20 euros.

RM Sotheby's Turbollection features exotics from the '80s and '90s

Wed, Aug 14 2024

If you have even a passing interest in cars, there's little doubt you know a thing or two about Porsche, whether the topic centers around a classic name like 911 or the more mainstream Cayenne and Macan crossovers. Bugatti? Sure, most people know about the historic French builder of world-class, record-setting automobiles, though admittedly the EB110 we're about to show you probably wouldn't be the first to come to mind. Fewer are likely familiar with the likes of Vector Aeromotive, a tiny American company with history that dates back to the 1980s. And we'd wager that most have never even heard of the likes of Isdera and Cizeta. Brush up on your history, (super wealthy car collecting) folks. RM Sotheby's has an exciting array of cars coming up for auction during the Monterey Car Week festivities on California. Among all the expected Ferrari, Lamborghini and Shelby classics potential buyers can wade through, the so-called Turbollection collection features much rarer oddities.
