A car that was abandon in a shed over fifty years ago and found when a doctor died has been sold at auction for an amazing €3,479,000! The 1937 Bugatti Type 57S, which was left in a garage in Gosforth, Newcastle, was bought by a telephone bidder for €3,479,000 when it went under the hammer at Bonhams' Retromobile Car Show and Sale in Paris.
It was sold on behalf of the family of its last owner, Dr Harold Carr. The car was originally owned by racing enthusiast Earl Howe, who was the first president of the British Racing Driver's Club
The amazing car still has its original chassis, engine, drive-train and body. The car even has low mileage with the clock reading just 26,284. The Bugatti is one of the most collectable cars in the world!
