According to my book "100 and de Bugatti" by Amaury Lot and Pierre Clément (éditions ArteLIBRIS) this is indeed the Type 10, nicknamed the 'baignoire' (bathtub) from 1907. First car to carry the Bugatti name. It's not really clear where Bugatti built this car, but I think it must have been in Strasbourg. He started only in 1910 to built cars in Molsheim. Anyway, in that period Bugatti was a German make, not French... |
