    Dear Comrade Toe-knee Hand-cock M8,

    In days gone by Ferrari was part of the Bugatti Owners Club. These days the Bugatti's are still Bugatti's. The EB110 is not a proper Bugatti - it is a designer label.

    My two penny's worth.

    With kind regards,

    But the SS model has a fixed wing, whereas the GT has a moveable wing... I'm SURE i read that whilst researching the car last night. Karl's car definitely had a moving rear wing. Maybe he'll pop on to confirm.

    Whichever particular model it is, it was fantastic and I was honoured to see it.

    A few years ago at the Coys Festival I payed a visit to the Bugatti Owners club stand.

    I wasn't interested in the old cars (I don't like them). I asked the guy who looked like he was charge if they were expecting an EB110 over the weekend.

    The guy started moaning at me including to say that they were not expecting the car. He hated the car because of what happened to the company. He was quite rude.

    I will get to see one eventually and discover how good or bad in looks in the flesh.

    TBH you're really not missing out on much (no offence to any owners etc..), It's pretty, but hasn't got that "wow" factor about it.... (the doors were cool tho!)

    A lot of Bugatti owners don't see the EB110 as being a 'true' Bugatti. It's a shame but they see it as a promotional tool to get the company into fame again...

    Foxy, need to disagree with you there. The EB110 is a supercar and always will be. All supercars pretty much have the WOW factor and i would say the EB110 is definitely one of them.

    Bear in mind its age, its still a beast, goes like **** and sounds like thunder. I was in Geneva for the show in 95/96 and there were two parked outside the front of the hotel, both were up and out all the time and i tell, when you see and hear one of these, its an occasion you will never forget.

    regards,

    Matthew
