3.3 Litre Straight 8.
7 or 9 made with mostly different coachwork.
1951 to 1965.

This is the 1965 car and considered last true car of this brand if the current super car bearing its name and previous reincarnation from a different factory are not considered.

Think; one of the most high profile current supercars.

I think the recent reincarnation of this brand is the fastest car Captain Slow has driven.

I'll accept that; also known as a Bugatti Type 101 C Ghia. Exner was working for Ghia at the time

Oh well, I've never heard of it until now, so I learned something today haha. Thanks for the link, some interesting stuff. Just wondering, are those levers on the arm rests the door handles?

Go again, aussiblue.

As it is known as, and somewhat famous as, the last true Bugatti I thought someone would have recognised it earlier.

It's a 1966, but I'd say that you're close enough (I don't think they changed much).
