A spokesperson for RM Sotheby’s said: “Technologically fascinating, visually unmistakable, and incredibly exclusive, it is everything a Bugatti should be – and with the first EB112 in the collection of Italdesign and the second in private ownership, the opportunity to acquire an example such as this is exceedingly rare indeed.
“To keen enthusiasts, it would have been truly exciting to spot this near-mythical machine in motion, while more casual onlookers must have been baffled by such a distinctive, unfamiliar car wearing a horseshoe grille and Bugatti badges.”
