What ho chaps, a bit of an excuse to share a few pictures here.

I've heard of Bugatti of course, as have most people I guess, I thought they were Italian for some reason, but apparently not, a google search has revealed it is French.

I think I've seen some old ones over the weekend ,in Suffolk.

Are these the real deal ?

I couldn't make up my mind, as although they look like something from the 20's or 30's, they were strange specs, disc brakes, seatbelts, bolt on fog and reversing lights, some tax exempt, some not.

Are these kit cars or perhaps replicas, whatever the difference is ?

Many thanks, I knew I'd get the answer on here.

How do they get away with showing Bugatti badges ?

Kit cars or not, and I guess these are, which was my suspicion with regard to bolted on reversing and fog lights, these do look fun.

Not many people could afford two million !

Yes, I'd never been there before, despite my old "home base" not being that far away, on the bikes we'd always headed for Great Yarmouth.

A nice little place, with a lovely and quirky slot machine place on the pier, that would appeal to a lot of "ph"ers.
