Vanmorgen op het journaal van de BBC:

Doctor leaves secret £6 million Bugatti in his will

Relatives of an eccentric doctor received a dream bequest when he left them a garage containing a 1937 Bugatti.

The 130mph Type 57S Atalante is only one of 17 ever made, and could be worth up to £6 million at auction. That would make it the most expensive car ever to go under the hammer.

Dr Harold Carr died in June 2007 aged 89, a childless bachelor. He left the lock-up in Newcastle to his nephews and nieces, without telling them of its invaluable contents. Alongside the Bugatti they also found an E Type Jaguar and an Aston Martin.


(Even wat feelgood-nieuws om het jaar te beginnen.)
