Bugatti Brescia paint refurbishment

A delighted client sent us in some pictures of his Bugatti Brescia that we had just repainted. Apparently he collected it from us and went on a road trip around France more or less straight away.

Some quotes and pictures below given to us by our satisfied client:  
"Have a picnic of rillettes as you head south"
"Soaking up the miles and the sunshine."
"Be sure to end up at the Domaine des Hauts de Loire in Onzain where there are 2 Michelin stars to enjoy in luxury."

Andy Mitchell our owner goes racing......and does not come last!

.....he came second to last after a valiant race up through the field to second place that was bought to a halt through a mechanical failure. 
Vows to get his team to prepare car in future!
