Rare find: The 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante found in a garage in England which was last used around 1960. The Bugatti, one of only 17 ever made, is expected to draw a record price when it is auctioned in Paris next month. It once represented the height of motoring achievement. The supercar was so ahead of its time it could go up to 209 kmph when most other cars topped about 80 kmph.
