Type 37 of Countess Margot Einsiedel

Scuderia CC · **Posted:** Fri Feb 27, 2009 10:55 am

I would like to have some clarification on the Bugatti Type 37 #37314-1. She was present at the exhibition Art of the Automobile in Monaco in June 2003 and its listing, it is presented as the Bugatti with which the Countess Margot Einsiedel has ran two months later it was sold at auction by Bonhams at the Nürburgring and it is presented again as ex-Countess Margot Einsiedel. I would like to know if this is not the car Countess Margot Einsiedel, which car is it?

J'aimerai avoir quelques précision sur la Bugatti Type 37 #37314-1. Elle fut présente à l'exposition Art de l'Automobile à Monaco en Juin 2003 et sur sa fiche de présentation, elle est présentée comme étant la Bugatti avec laquelle la Comtesse Margot Einsiedel a courrue, deux mois plus tard elle est vendue aux enchères par Bonhams au Nürburgring et elle est présentée là aussi comme étant ex-Comtesse Margot Einsiedel. Je voudrais savoir si ce n'est pas la voiture de la Comtesse Margot Einsiedel, laquelle est la voiture de celle-ci ??

Lequel est le vrai 37314 avec le 211 C ? Celui de Frederica & Simon Kirkpatrick, Guernsey ou celui de Mulhouse (Schumpf)?

How can it be that 37314 was delivered on April 4th 1928 to Omnia Munich and when Elizabeth Junek arrived at the 15th in Sicily for the Targa Florio, she wrote in a letter to her husband "Cenek" (read in her biography "My Life") that Huldreich Heusser and Margot von Einsiedel have already been in Sicily "for a long time"?
