97 years ago Bugatti was turning out supercharged sports cars... what? I just thought this was a car company that started in the 70s... The more you know.

Thanks. I just remembered, I noticed that the spare wheel was cast in one piece of aluminium with the brake drum. There was a steel liner in the drum. If you get a flat tyre you change the brakes as well which I haven’t seen before.

Clearly they were still trying to figure things out. That's bananas.
