EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exhilarating moment when a Bugatti Type 40 participated in the Bugatti Owners Club gymkhana on July 5,1931. The artist behind this remarkable image is Bill Brunell, who skillfully portrays the essence of this classic car event. The Bugatti Type 40, with its powerful 1496 cc engine and distinctive vehicle registration number MW5160, stands out amidst the picturesque backdrop of the Bugatti O. C. Gymkhana location. Set against a beautiful countryside landscape, this vintage automobile showcases both elegance and speed. As spectators cheer from afar, the driver maneuvers through a challenging course set within farmland fields. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the thrill of driving as well as leisurely pursuits during that era. With its monochrome aesthetic, this photograph transports us back to a time when motoring was an art form in itself. It serves as a testament to Britain's rich automotive heritage and highlights France's influence on early twentieth-century car design. Preserved by Heritage Images at the National Motor Museum, this piece by WJ Brunell captures not only an iconic vehicle but also represents an important chapter in road transport history. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate enthusiasts today while reminding us of our enduring fascination with classic cars and their place in our cultural memory.
