This 1933 Bugatti Type 55 Roadster was crowned Best of Show at the 2018 Salon Privé Chubb Insurance Concours d’Elégance.
Thursday's competition was assessed by an expert panel of judges, chaired by five-time Le Mans winner and two-time World Sports Car Champion Derek Bell MBE.
And while the Bugatti took top honours at Blenheim Palace, competition was fierce – especially when you look at the cars that secured the second- and third-place prizes.
In the runner-up spot was the stunning 1937 Delage D8-120 that featured in MGM's Oscar-winning An American in Paris, while a 1971 Lamborghini Miura S took the final podium spot.
The Delage had earlier won the 'Pre-War Luxury Tourers' class and was honoured with the 'Most Opulent' award, while the Miura S topped the 'Supercars of the ’70s' class and received the 'Most Iconic' prize.
“It was an honour and a privilege to display this beautiful Jean Bugatti-style Type 55 Roadster which is considered to be the most original specimen in the world as it is the only unrestored example with less than 50,000 miles on the clock,” said Salon Privé's Managing Director and Concours Chairman, Andrew Bagley.
