London Concours and EMM London to showcase Sultan of Brunei’s ultra-rare Bugatti EB110 SS as part of ‘The Dream Cars’ display
The London Concours, the City of London’s ultimate automotive garden party, is partnering with EMM London to showcase a stunning display of automotive legends: ‘The Dream Cars’ class.
The ‘Dream Cars’ category – just one of the event’s exciting range of classes – will bring together masterpieces from the world’s most exotic marques from June 3rd to 5th at the Honourable Artillery Company.
A standout entry into the ‘Dream Cars’ class will be an especially rare Bugatti EB110 SS, once delivered new to the Sultan of Brunei, arguably the most prolific car collector of all – whose unparalleled treasure trove of automotive exotica was leaked to the world last year. This particular EB110SS, chassis number 0001, is one of just 30 Super Sport Coupé examples ever produced and boasts astounding performance levels befitting its iconic nameplate.
A mid-engined V12, producing an awe-inspiring 610bhp, the EB110 SS features four turbos and four-wheel-drive, all coming together to form a package of mind-blowing performance. One other owner who was seduced by its charms in period was a certain Michael Schumacher. The result of this performance and engineering excellence was a top speed of 212mph, which it at the Nardi test track in Italy.
Alongside the EB110 SS will be several leading models from the stables of the world’s most enviable automotive marques, including the Ferrari F40, Lamborghini Diablo GT and Porsche 959. Making up ‘The Dream Cars’ class, these motoring thoroughbreds, owned and adored by enthusiasts and celebrities alike, will celebrate those automotive icons that many envisage as part of their dream garage. The London Concours, together with class sponsor EMM London, will be bringing that image to life in June at the Honourable Artillery Company.
