The price for the 1925 Bugatti Type 22 was even more astonishing given that it had a reserve price of between €70,000 and €90,000.
The final high bidders were divided in their plans for the vehicle, with the European winner planning to display the car in its present condition.

A rare Bugatti that has spent 73 years at the bottom of a Swiss lake is expected to fetch more than €90,000 at auction, the same as a brand new luxury motor.
The 1925 open-top Type 22 is known as the Bugatti Brescia, after the Italian track where the model took the top four places at a race in 1921.
It is now believed that it belonged to Max Schmuklerski, a Swiss-Polish architect who left it in store in a builder’s yard.


Italian pen maker Ferrari da Varese have worked with Bugatti to create an exclusive pen inspired by the Bugatti Veyron.
The Bugatti Type A pen, designed by Luigi Trenti, is a limited edition pen made from the same grade aluminum as the Veyron’s engine with a stainless steel grip.
The barrel is then plated with nickel then sterling silver then palladium and finally platinum ensuring it does not oxidize.
