Dr Simon mentions the lacquer finish in its book "pale green-grey metallic", for the Roadster of 1936. Did both cars have really the same lacquer finish ?

Sorry for the off-toppic but has the 57385 ever been painted in a darker colour, say burgundy, like the Brumm miniature?

Brumm (and many other) car model manufacturers paint their products in whatever paint is in their paint gun. I would certainly not take their work as a reference.

The picture of the Aerolithe at the 1935 London Motor Show was found by Anton van Luijk, and published on http://www.BugattiPage.com

The style of that back end is the best solution.Unlike all those Talbot Lago's made by Pourtout and Saoutchik. :mrgreen:

Why is it important what colour the first owner wanted? It must surely be the choice of the current owner that matters.
