Enthusiasts in the mid 1920s coveted the BUGATTI TYPE 35 – as did Ettore’s youngest son, Roland. For his fourth birthday, Roland’s father and older brother, Jean, built a 50% scale model for him. The BUGATTI BABY was born.
Those visiting Molsheim were so captivated that Ettore – who initially planned the BABY as a one-off – decided to put it into production. Between 1927 and 1936, around 500 units were built, making the BABY the most popular BUGATTI of the time. Very few have survived and are in the hands of lucky collectors. The BUGATTI BABY left no successors. Until now.
