2004 BUGATTI TYPE 59 4.2 MANUAL RECREATION
We are excited to offer this superb recreation of a Type 59 Bugatti. The attention to detail makes this example special. Your choice to drive and experience the real adrenaline flow of the earlier race drivers (can spin the drive wheels in all five gears) or put it indoors and admire it.
There is an interesting story in the creation of this car which we are happy to share.
