3 Bugatti Royale will be at Retromobile, it's 40th anniversary


there were only 6 made, this is the Napoleon from the Schlumpf collection

Ettore, described them on paper, in 1913: "It will be larger than a Rolls-Royce while being lighter. I hope to get to the perfect silence. The production is impeccable  The cars will be delivered tests of 1000 miles less. It will be too expensive, but will be compared with any other car of this kind. It will be a mechanical part beyond criticism."

The car is presented by Ettore in person, in 1926, the wealthy crowned heads of the entire planet (hence the name Royal).

Two Royal only sold in 1932 (The Esders and the convertible Weinberger), the Park Ward in 1933, and then double travel sedan and the Kellner coach in 1950. The Napoleon remained the car of the head of Molsheim, which makes six Royale.
