This week I arranged a visit to the Bugatti Trust with three friends www.bugatti-trust.co.uk . It is open all year round to visitors interested in car, art, design, engineering and history of the Bugatti family. On arrival Sue, who helps run the trust came out to meet us. She then asked if we would like tea or coffee and sat us down at a table to watch a video prior to looking around. Incidentally she rides a CCM and a 998 Ducati so I can guarantee you a warm welcome. It is open all year round to visitors interested in car, art, design, engineering and history of the Bugatti family. The attention to detail is outstanding. Bugatti even re-engineered the basic vice used in the manufacturing process to have the action of a precision instrument. Try the one at the trust and be amazed by how smooth the action is. Make a point of looking at the 10.5 cc Bugatti Type 72 motorcycle engine with its tiny piston. Typically visitors spend 1 to 1.5 hours there. We travelled from Fleet Hampshire (201miles 4.75Hours round trip) and there are lots of great roads in the area so any petrol head can have a great day. The Royal Oak, at Gretton is recommended for lunch.[[File:IMG_0551.HEIC]][[File:IMG_0551.HEIC]].

Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #2 8 miles is too close wessie-you seldom visit places on your doorstep. Had I known you were that close you could have joined us-My R1250RS, a Lupin, K1600 and a Triumph Sprint GT. John |

Zitat von JAG im Beitrag #3Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #2 yes, when I go near there I am usually starting a lap of the Cotswolds as the road from there to Stow is great fun. I would have joined you as I have been off work all week using up the last of my 2021-22 leave, twiddling my thumbs at home not doing much after it turned cold again.
