I don't know how you found it David, or if it found you, but as they say it's a marriage made in heaven. I could watch hours more of it. I will be watching your auction on Saturday, there's no one better to put this gem into the market.

Look at this Bugatti made in 1934, speed round the corner and switch lane like a preying bird 0:20. A skyrocket price, no doubt about it.

That's what is said in the video. It belonged to King Leopold.
