Saw this at Goodwood yesterday. It almost looks like a very good kit car, with a very F355-looking rear end, but it said Bugatti on the back..

It's a EMB Tazio Coupe. Not sure what they (the owners) were thinking making it look like a bugatti

Its like they have tried to make it look like a Veyron with the colour scheme.

Saw this yesterday too and just didn't look right.

It looks a little like an MR2 with a bodykit.

Aha, thanks for the info.

At the time I saw it, I said "It's either a £30k kit car or a £300k rarity". I like to hedge my bets, you see...

It's a fake but it's a nice looking car, it kinda looked like what would happen if you took a 355 and an NSX to a Noble workshop and asked them to put it together..

I was queuing behind this smoker through the Limehouse tunnel on the first Candyrun - it filled my car with exhaust fumes, was glad to get past it.

I was on the run down to goodwood with it,
it not only turns heads, it has a good road presence and sounds great at full chat.

the owner's not the sort to 'big up' his car, it is what it is, a rare prototype, rough and ready but lots of fun.

personally i like it, maybe not to everyones taste, but it's different.
travelling down the A3, 3x360 spiders side by side, the EBM just ahead, now that made a great picture....you'd never see 3 ebm's in one place.

'a rare prototype' - so is it a Bugatti, or not?
