Photographed in September 1932 by Harold Tomlin for the Daily Herald, this Bugatti is being filled with milk petrol in preparation for the 500 mile race at Brooklands. It will be driven by Count Stanislas Czaykowski, the only foreign competitor and a big fan of milkshakes.

B.M.W. ceased importing the saloon after 1965, although imports of the coupé continued for a few more years. The Consumers' Association described it as "an amazingly quick car, with superb handling, but with an expensive servicing schedule, a poor heater and a truly appalling wiper pattern." ("Which" magazine, July 1965)

The car is an early 50's Packard.

 

Grille and front bumper indicate it's a 1954, the final year of the 1951-54 body shape.
