| 1926 Bugatti Type 36 (Brooklands): In 1926, Capt. Malcolm Campbell (he would become Sir Malcolm in 1931) was one of the fastest men alive. Having set the world land speed record in 1924 & 25, he would set it again in 1927 and six more times leading up to WWII. He would also set the water speed record four times, so his penchant for speed was well established. It is not often known that he was also a successful race car driver. Model by RACING DIORAMICS 1/43 |
1926 Bugatti Type 36 (Brooklands): As the London distributor for Bugatti, Campbell would favor cars of that marque and was successful in grand prix racing in the late 1920's. Campbell was a regular fixture at Brooklands in club and BARC racing events. Campbell placed second at the first British GP in 1926 driving a Bugatti. This car represents the early racing and testing of this Bugatti racing prototype. Model by RACING DIORAMICS 1/43 |
1926 Bugatti Type 36 (Brooklands): The Bugatti Type 36 was a prototype first raced in 1925 with a 1.1L engine, in 1926, it was given a 1.5L supercharged straight-eight engine of 128hp. At first it featured a rear axle bolted directly to the frame. Proving unmanageable, it was subsequently given rear springs and long radius rods for stability and handling. The T36 gave birth to the immortal Type 35C and Type 39. This car represents the early racing and testing of this Bugatti racing prototype. Model by RACING DIORAMICS 1/43 |

| 1927 Bugatti 35B (Rome GP, 1928 - WINNER): The "Master of Monaco", Louis Chiron as the lead driver for Bugatti and in 1928, the T35 was the dominant car in open-wheel grand prix racing. Including Rome, French born Chiron won six major races that year including the Grand Epreuves at Monza, much to the chagrin of the Italians. Considering Tazio Nuvolari was his teammate, it is a notable feat. The Type 35B was introduced in 1927, with a 2.3L supercharged version of the overhead cam straight-eight Bugatti engine. Chiron was one of the greatest drivers of all time, racing in F1 for Ferrari at his retirement in 1955. Model by ALTAYA (modified) 1/43 |
1933 Bugatti Type 59 (Belgian GP, 1934): The Bugatti Type 59 was a continuation and the final iteration of Ettore Bugatti's Grand Prix racing cars and only a few were ever created. Between 1933 and 1936, only six or seven examples were built. Powered by a Roots supercharged 3.3L eight cylinder DOHC engine, the Type 59 produced 250 bhp in a very light car (1650 lbs). Despite great potential, the cars won few races, just being too unreliable to finish. The a most notable victory was at the Belgian GP with Rene Dreyfus driving. Model by BRUMM 1/43 |

| 1934 Bugatti T59 (Monaco GP, 1934): 1934 saw the introduction of the Bugatti T59 grand prix car, whose introduction coincided with a change in regulations for Grand Prix racing. In addition to weight restrictions, in 1934, all Grand Prix races were to be a minimum of 500 Km in length. The Grand Prix at Monaco was granted an exception and its 100-lap race of 318 Km on Monaco streets was considered the equivalent on time to 500 Km length races. In addition to Bugatti, Alfa Romeo with its Tipo B/P3 and Maserati with its 8C were the top contenders and in fact qualified Alfa Romeo, Maserati and Bugatti, Alfa Romeo, Bugatti for the first five positions in qualifying for the 1934 Monaco GP. The first race of the 1934 GP season, the new Mercedes and Auto Union GP cars did not arrive. The race day which started out wet, dried to perfect race conditions on a beautiful warm Mediterranean afternoon. Model by LE MANS MINIATURES 1/18 |
1934 Bugatti T59 (Monaco GP, 1934): Rene Dreyfus qualified his 3.3L straight-eight Bugatti T59 third on the grid and ahead of his teammate Tazio Nuvolari. The T59 used a modified T54 chassis with the engine sitting lower in the chassis to improve the cars center of gravity. The T59 was shod with unique and beautiful new disc wheels laced on the outside with piano wire. At the race start, Dreyfus was a close second to Louis Chiron in one of the five Scuderia Ferrari Alfa Romeos. Their close race lasted 40 laps when Dreyfus had to pit to remedy a slipping clutch, re-entering the race in third behind Guy Moll in an Alfa Romeo. At half distance he was passed by the Maserati of Whitney Straight going uphill towards the Monte Carlo Casino. The order was Chiron, Moll, Straight, Dreyfus and Nuvolari in the top five. Model by LE MANS MINIATURES 1/18 |
1934 Bugatti T59 (Monaco GP, 1934): The race continued in this order until the closing laps when brakes and tires both began to fade. Holding a comfortable lead, Chiron slid his Alfa Romeo into the sandbags at the Station hairpin and could not get going again before his teammate Moll had passed him. Not long after, Straight in the Maserati slid off course and was able to resume the race, but well down the order. This elevated Dreyfus into third spot where he remained the rest of the race, giving Bugatti not a win, but a very good result for the first race of the new T59. Guy Moll won the race and would be the youngest Monaco GP winner until Lewis Hamilton won the F1 race there in 2008. The finishing order was Moll and Chiron in Alfas, Dreyfus in the Bugatti and Marcel Lehoux in another Alfa, passing Nuvolari in the other Bugatti Teams T59 for fourth. While Dreyfus would win the Belgian GP in the T59 at Spa in the rain, but with the might of the Mercedes and Auto Unions in GP racing in 1934, Bugatti looked to sportscar racing instead.

1934 Monaco Grand Prix: In this Michael Turner print, Rene Dreyfus has passed the Maserati 8CM of Phillippe Etancelin (#14)for second place behind Louis Chiron in the Alfa Romeo P3. Chiron's teammate Guy Moll is pressing Etancelin in his Scuderia Ferrari Alfa Romeo (#20). Moll would go on to win the race, the first for the Bugatti T59. |

| 1936 Bugatti Type 57G 'Tank' (LEMANS WINNER): Nicknamed the 'Tank', built on the 57S chassis, the 57G was one of the first envelope bodied race cars. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1937, Jean-Pierre Wimille and Robert Benoist drove a Type 57G to victory at Le Mans at an average speed of 85 mph. It was powered by the 57S' 3.3L in-line eight cylinder engine and 135 hp. Model by IXO 1/43 |
1939 Bugatti Type 57C ' Tank'(LEMANS WINNER): Jean Pierre Wimille and Pierre Veyron drove this entry to victory at Le Mans in 1939. The car was entered in Wimille's name. A revision of the 1937 Le Mans winning 'Tank', this ca was based on the T57 C mechanicals, including the 3.3L inline-eight cylinder, supercharged engine which produced 160 hp. Shortly after Le Mans, Jean Bugatti was testing the car on a closed road and was killed when he crashed the car after swerving to avoid hitting a drunk bicyclist. WWII ended any further Bugatti racing car development and also put an end to Le Mans for ten years. Model by IXO 1/43 |

| 1930 Bugatti Type 50 T: The Type 50 Bugatti is by many, considered the finest motorcar made by the firm from Molsheim. The French firm brought sportiness to their already luxurious Type 46 on which the Type 50 was based. The Type 50 also featured the most powerful engine produced by Bugatti. A total of sixty-five Type 50s were built between 1930 and 1934 in Profilee (coupe) and semi-Profilee (touring) coachwork. The total production number included two Type 50 Le Mans race cars. Model by LOOK SMART 1/43 |
1930 Bugatti Type 50 T: The Type 50 coachwork was done by different coach firms to the design of Jean Bugatti. This car in its semi-Profilee coachwork gives it the designation Type 50 T. All Type 50s were powered by a 5.0L Roots type supercharged straight eight-cylinder engine. The engine was inspired by the Miller Indy type engine. The Type 50 T engine produced 200 BHP, 25 less than the coupe, but had more torque. It was capable of a top speed of 120 mph (192 kph). Heady stuff for 1930! Model by LOOK SMART 1/43 |

| 1935 Bugatti T57 Ventoux Coupe: The Bugatti Type 57 (T57) was produced from 1934 to 1940 and the cars were a beautiful incorporation of Jean Bugattis designs and Ettore Bugattis masterful engineering. The father and son created some o the most beautiful as well as powerful pre-WWII motorcars. The Type 57 of which 710 cars in the different T57 variants were built. Model by HECO 1/43 |
1935 Bugatti T57 Ventoux Coupe: A grand touring car, the Type 57 (T57) has a DOHC 3.3L straight-eight engine whose 135 HP engine could propel the one-ton car at a top speed of 95 MPH. This T57 (Ch. #57107) is a fairly early production car in striking Ventoux four-seat coupe bodywork, one of two body styles available in either a two or four-window coupe, with this car being a four-window coupe. The name Ventoux comes from one of the peaks in the French Alps and is a Jean Bugatti designed body built in-house at Bugatti. Approximately 139 Ventoux bodied T57s were produced. Model by HECO 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti T57 Ganglof Aravis Coupe: In 1936, The Type 57 (T57) was revised to incorporate a competition inspired chassis which allowed the cars to sit lower. For production in 1937, a Roots-type supercharger was fit to the DOHC 3.3L straight-eight engine, which increased the horsepower over un-supercharged cars by 25 HP to 160 HP and the top end speed from 95 to 120 MPH. Considering the average top speed for luxury cars at the time was about 85 MPH, the Bugatti was not only beautiful, but a high-performance car to boot! Bugatti offered a variety of choices in body styles based on the T57. There were coupes and cabriolets with bodies produced in-house (Ventoux, Stelvio, Galibier) but one could also have custom bodied coachwork built to Bugatti designs by noted coachbuilders at the time. Model by ILARIO-CHROMES 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti T57 Ganglof Aravis Coupe: One such coachbuilder for Bugatti was Gangloff, then one of the most important coachbuilders before WWII. The Swiss firm bodied many luxury cars, but Bugatti was an important source of work. Keeping with the practice of naming the Type 57 (T57) body styles after French Alp peaks, the Aravis built by Gangloff (often just T57 Gangloff) was a striking two-seat coupe introduced in 1937. Like all Bugattis for 1938, it received hydraulic brakes rather than Ettore Bugattis preferred cable brakes. Less than 100 of these coupes were made up to 1940 and while somewhat overlooked when compared to its sisters the Type 57 S and SC. Less than 100 of these coupes were made (this car is Ch#57717.)

| 1935 Bugatti Type 57 TT: Most Bugatti T57s were bodied with Jean Bugatti designs either at the factory, or at select coachbuilders such as Graber, Van Vooren and Gangloff. This car (Ch. #57316) was bodied by Bertelli, but despite the Italian name, it was bodied in Feltham, England. The cars original owner was Col. G.M. Giles, who was founder of the British Bugatti Owners Club. The body for the car was designed by the Colonels brother, Eric an interior designer. Nicknamed Terese, the car was built on a TT chassis with a highly tuned 3.3L engine. A Bugatti T57 owned by Lord Howe with the modified chassis and engines did well in the 1935 Ulster Tourist Trophy race and hence the TT moniker was given to cars with similar modified engines and chassis. Model by MATRIX 1/43 |
1935 Bugatti Type 57 TT: Col. Giles went to France to collect the chassis and then proceeded to drive it back to England. The bare chassis powered by the 148 HP engine must have made quite an exciting trip! It was then given its lovely four-seater body by Bertelli. The deep-tapered rear end has room for two spare wheels and the rear also has hydraulic jacks to facilitate wheel changing. Col. Giles was most impressed with his new grand touring car, one of twelve Bugattis he owned at the time. He said of the car, "truly the most superb car anybody could wish for - fast, silent, terrific acceleration, and yet so docile that thick traffic can be negotiated on top speed if desired." He sold the car in 1939 to be replaced by another with bodywork designed by his brother. This time a super-charged Type 57SC. The Colonel knew how to travel well! Model by MATRIX 1/43 |
1937 Bugatti T57 Graber Galibier: The Galiber bodied by Graber is a four door sport saloon built on the Type 57 chassis to Bugatti design, which befitted from all the T57 engineering, development and upgrades throughout production. It used the twin-overhead camshaft 3.3-litre inline-8 which was good for 135 bhp in standard form. The Galibier (named after the Alps peak) were built and bodied by Bugatti, as well as coach builders Gangloff, Van Vooren, with this car having been bodied by the Swiss firm Carrosserie Hermann Graber. Graber is equally well known for their production of Alvis bodies, as well as Bentley, Aston Martin, Lagonda, and Rolls-Royce. A rare car, approximately 70 Galibier saloons were built, with an estimated third of those now rebodied as coupes and cabriolets. Model by LUXCAR 1/43 |

| 1937 Bugatti Type 57 Gangloff Streamline Coupe: This Type 57 started out life as Galibier bodied saloon but was converted early in life to the streamlined four passenger coupe seen here by Gangloff. The Swiss/French coachbuilder located in Colmar, was close to the Bugatti factory and had a close collaboration with Bugatti. On the Type 57 chassis, Gangloff built the Stelvio most predominantly, but also the Type 57 Atalante, of which this car closely resembles. It is believed to be a one-off commission done in the late 1930's and is not known if the design was by Jean Bugatti. Model by VROOM 1/43 |
1937 Bugatti Type 57 Gangloff Streamline Coupe: As with many Bugatti's, the exact history of this car is a bit of an enigma wrapped in a mystery. Exact dates and details are not known, but it is known the car made its way to Australia in the late 50's or early 60's. It was owned by a Gavin Sandford-Morgan who rebodied the car in the 1960's to resemble a Ulster Tourist Trophy T57. This may have been because an actual T57T as they were known resided there. It was not the best job and it was subsequently rebodied as a T57C race car, still being actively raced in vintage events in Australia as late as 2024. Model by VROOM 1/43 |

| 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic: I first fell in love with this car when I saw it "in the flesh" in 1990 at Pebble Beach, where it won best of show. Painted black by its current owner Ralph Lauren, it started out life in 1938 painted this beautiful Sapphire Blue for its first owner R.B. Pope of London. Chassis 57591 was one of four Atlantics built and the first of the three aluminum bodied cars built. The first Atlantic was skinned in electron, an alloy of aluminum and magnesium used in aircraft construction. Because it could not be welded, the central fin structure along its roof was riveted and this unique feature was carried over to the aluminum bodied cars. Model by AUTOART 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic: Designed by Ettore Bugatti's son Jean, the cars styling was strongly influenced by aircraft design. With its tear-drop shape, raked windscreen, kidney-shaped suicide doors with matching side windows, and the memorable riveted fins in the back; the Atlantic is one if not the most beautiful cars ever made. Powerful as it was beautiful the car was propelled by a 3.3L inline eight-cylinder, supercharged engine rated at 210 horsepower. This car's lines were accentuated with Rudge Whitworth wire wheels giving extra cooling to its large drum brakes. Model by AUTOART 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic: On August 11, 1939 while testing a Type 57C tank-bodied racer, Jean Bugatti was killed. This was the same day as the start of the 2nd World War, which inevitably meant that the race Jean was preparing the vehicle for would never be run. It was also for all intents and purposes, the end of the Bugatti name. While the company tried to survive in the aftermath of WWII and without its brilliant designer, the Type 57SC Atlantic would be Bugatti's last crowning achievement. Model by AUTOART 1/43 |

| 1938 Bugatti Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique: To cut costs, Ettore Bugatti designed one chassis which would be available with various body styles, most to be designed and constructed at the Bugatti Factory. While a number of what would become the T57 model of Bugatti received coachwork from some of the finest coach builders of the day, most were designed by Jean Bugatti who was just 25 when the T57 launched in 1934. One of his outstanding designs was this Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique from 1938. Model by KESS 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique: The Aerolithe prototype was built from an aluminum-magnesium alloy called Electron. Difficult to weld it led to riveted body construction, which carried over to some models like the Atlantic. The Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique used the riveted seam design as a nod to the Aerolithe, even though its production body was made from aluminum sheet metal. This one-off car (Ch #57335) is powered by a supercharged 3.3L inline eight-cylinder engine producing 160 bhp. Model by KESS 1/43 |
1938 Bugatti Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique: Type 57C Coupe Aerodynamique was a birthday present to Ettore Bugatti from the factory workers in 1938. A design by his son Jean, the car remained a cherished part of the factory collection, protected during WWII and after Ettore's death in 1947 with various upgrades made along the way. It was finally sold to private hands in 1950 and has survived in remarkable original condition. The original glass roof panel was replaced with a solid panel along the way, but retains all the pieces for it to be restored back to original glass. Model by KESS 1/43 |

| 1939 Bugatti Type 57C Cabriolet Vanvooren: The 57 C was the supercharged version of Type 57 Bugatti using the same 3.3L straight-eight engine, which now producing 160 BHP, could reportedly carry this car to 135 MPH. Ninety-six T57C cars were built from 1937-1940, with bodies by various coachbuilders. This car is one of a kind, built by the famous Paris firm of Vanvooren and featuring its flowing art deco lines. The top and windscreen can both be lowered into the cars body. Model by MATRIX 1/43 |
1939 Bugatti Type 57C Cabriolet Vanvooren: This car was a gift from France to Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, then Prince of Persia and later the Shah of Iran on his wedding in 1939. The Prince was taken with the designs by Figoni and Falahi. They were unable to create a car in time for the wedding, so instead collaborated with Vanvooren to copy the design used on their famous Delahaye creation. When the Shah was forced into exile in 1979, the car was sold by the new Iranian regime in poor condition. It has subsequently ended up restored, in the Petersen Museum. Model by MATRIX 1/43 |
1939 Bugatti Type 57 Galiber: Named after the famous pass in the Alps, the Type 57 Galibier was Bugatti's four-door sports saloon and a nice compliment to the Type 57 coupes. Built between 1933-39, the Galibier used Bugatti's twin-overhead camshaft 3.3L inline-8 which was good for 135 bhp and capable of 95 mph. The coachwork was done at the Bugatti factory, although it is estimated that of the less than 70 Galibier cars built, a quarter are now wearing different coachwork as more sporting roadsters, coupes or cabriolets.

| 1939 Bugatti Type 64: Work on the Type 64 began in 1938, the Atlantic style coupe not being completed until 1939. Its development was slowed by both the Bugatti company's low finances and pending war in Europe. It was Jean Bugatti's last design before his untimely death in August 1939 while testing one of their race cars. Three chassis for the Type 64 were completed, with only this car receiving a body constructed by Bugatti factory workmen before Jean's death. Designed to replace the Type 57, the Type 64 was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in October 1939. Model by VROOM 1/43 |
1939 Bugatti Type 64: The Type 64 was given an aluminum alloy box frame chassis, and new 4.4L DOHC in-line eight-cylinder engine which produced 185 hp and propel the car to a 120-mph top speed. There is a story that before war consumed France in 1940, the car was driven at speed to be hidden in Switzerland for the duration of the war. It is more certain that after WWII the car was used by the factory and was one of the cars acquired by the Schlumpf brothers when they purchased the remaining Bugatti factory assets in the 1950's and this car remains in their former collection/museum.

| 1951 Bugatti Type 101 Leopix Prototype: A development of the Type 57 after WWII, the Type 101 was the last passenger car built by Bugatti. A total of six production cars and one prototype were built by four body makers (Gangloff, Guillore, Antem and Virgil Exner / Ghia), but the car was not enough to restored the company to its pre-war glory and save the company from receivership. Model By AVENUE 43 1/43 |
1951 Bugatti Type 101 Leopix Prototype: The prototype of the T 101 had a body that had been designed by the French industrial designer Louis Lucien Lepoix. He designed a four-door notchback sedan with fenders that flowed smoothly into the door panels. The headlights had a special design feature. They were free-standing and set back in two openings on either side of the grille. The cream-colored car is now in the Schlumpf collection. Model By AVENUE 43 1/43 |
1951 Bugatti Type 101 Leopix Prototype: One is left to ponder that had Jean Bugatti lived to survive WWII and that Ettore Bugatti had not met such a tragic end to his life in 1947, could the pair have resurrected their ruined factory after the war and become a premier auto maker once again? Model By AVENUE 43 1/43 |
1951 Bugatti Type 101: One of the six Type 101 production cars made, this car (Ch.#57454) was bodied in coupe form by Gangloff. Like most Type 101's, it is powered by a 3.3L straight-eight engine from the Type 57 and built upon a modified Type 57 chassis. Apart from styling, the Type 101 was very much tied to pre-war engineering and concepts. The company's engineering innovation died with the death of Jean Bugatti in 1939. Model By ALTAYA/IXO 1/43 |

|
| 1951 Bugatti Type 101: The Type 101 was made between 1951 and 1952 to restart Bugatti production after World War II. Bugatti had lost its founder Ettore just after the war and his son Jean just before. They were the heart and soul of Bugatti, the company never recoved from those losses and the disruption of war. There were just seven chassis made, based on the pre-wat Type 57, bodied by four different coachbuilders. They were powered by the powered by the 3.3 L straight-8 from the Type 57 which produced 135 hp. This car is the Guillorê 2-door coach, the third Type 101 built. Model by ALTAYA/IXO 1/43 |
2016 Bugatti Chiron: Introduced in 2016, the Chrion named for famed Bugatti driver Louis Chiron form the 1930s, the Chiron was limited to 500 total production variants over its production run from 2016-2022. Sixty of the first generation of Chirons like this were made. They are powered by a mid-engine, 8.0L W16 engine which produces 1500 HP! The carbon fibre bodied Chiron is speed limited to a 261 MPH top-speed because it was deemed no tire was capable of handling its potential top-speed. A supercar worthy of the Bugatti name, which carries styling cues and colors of the Bugatti super cars that preceded it almost 80 years earlier. Model by ALTAYA 1/43 |
