Can you help identify a classic car

from this model?




I'm trying to help someone out, this is what they said about it:

said:

don't know anything about it for me to put in the blurb. Her husband bought it years ago but he passed away last year and she's needing to clear the house to sell it.
The model itself is about 2.5 ft long. Body seems to be painted fibre glass, axles steel and tyres rubber not plastic.
We think it might be a Bugatti but aren't by any means sure.

Thanks.

Looks like a 1933 Bugatti Type 51, but the wheels are wrong, which makes me think it's a Delage 2LCV.

Google both and decide for yourself...

Write to the Automobile Magazine, they will know.

Its losely based on a Bugatti or, as I have seen them for sale elsewhere as a Buggati

Thanks, good suggestions but the position of the front wheels is wrong in both, they seem right at the front, whereas in the model they are slightly recessed.

I think you might be on the money, i.e. it's a generic "mash-up" of various vintage (bugatti) bits.
