This book is a pictorial tribute to the 4-cylinder Bugatti Type 40. Although sometimes unkindly referred to as ‘Ettore’s Morris Cowley,’ the model nevertheless shared its fine engineering pedigree with all other Bugattis. Packed with mainly period photographs, illustrations and sales literature, it is a visual treat for all admirers of this model, and for added interest the book also features the factory’s individual chassis sales records.
