it is for sale (no interest or connection to me)
from http://link.marktplaats.nl/693881014
The advert says:
Original cast Engine side plate.
Size 34 x 23 cm. Great as wall-decoration.

I would better like to see it on a car: John/Jean ?

Must be off now: I am going to enjoy my very first ride in a Bugatti in an hour :D :D :D

I have seen this plate before, some 5 years ago or more....

So Bart, how was your ride in a Bugatti? And of course, in which one?

Hello Jaap,
It was fellow townsman Johan who granted me the pleasure, to chauffeur me on a tour with his beautiful T44. It was great: a real grand tourer with a beautiful sound.
It was comparable to the unrestored 4 litre Bentley I drove myself 10 years ago - which I liked very much - but a different character of car: The Bugatti is more sporty. It was also better than the Spyker C4 and much better than the RR (Springfield) Silver Ghost both of which I drove at that same event (but driving the Spyker remains very very special).

Next up: find an owner who is willing to let me (carefully) drive a Bugatti myself: any takers :wink: ? I am quite sure that opportunity will come someday.
