Description of the actual model
The Bugatti EB 110 was born in 1991 under the leadership of Romano Artioli, who bought the Bugatti brand in 1987 with the ambition of reviving this automotive legend. Presented on September 15, 1991, Ettore Bugatti's 110th birthday, this supercar embodies the brand's technological revival.
Powered by a 3.5-liter V12 engine developing 560 horsepower in its GT version and 611 horsepower in its Super Sport version, the EB 110 delivers extraordinary performance. Its carbon fiber body, designed by Marcello Gandini, boasts futuristic lines that mark a break from classic Bugatti creations while retaining the brand's DNA.
Despite its remarkable technical qualities and top-notch performance, production ended prematurely in 1995 due to the company's financial difficulties. Only 139 examples were built, making this Bugatti a particularly rare and sought-after model.
History of the Bugatti brand
In the 1990s, Bugatti underwent an ambitious but fragile renaissance . After decades of absence, Romano Artioli relaunched the brand with considerable resources, building a state-of-the-art factory in Campogalliano, Italy. This renaissance was part of a desire to reconnect with the technical excellence that had made Bugatti's reputation in the interwar period.
Founded in 1909 by Ettore Bugatti , the Alsatian brand established itself as one of the absolute benchmarks in luxury and racing automobiles. The Type 35, Type 41 Royale and Type 57 had marked automotive history with their technical refinement and incomparable elegance. After production ceased in 1963, the brand remains remembered as a symbol of French excellence.
The EB 110's adventure, although brief, demonstrated Bugatti's ability to innovate and surprise . This experience, despite its commercial failure, laid the technological foundations and the legacy that would later allow the Volkswagen group to successfully relaunch the brand with the Veyron.
A supercar with a tragic destiny
The history of the Bugatti EB 110 is closely linked to that of Romano Artioli , a passionate entrepreneur who invested a personal fortune to revive the brand. This Italian businessman, owner of a network of Lamborghini and Ferrari dealerships, nourished the crazy dream of reviving Bugatti. He bought the rights to the brand and invested more than 300 million dollars in this pharaonic project.
The EB 110 enjoyed its heyday in the world of motorsport and entertainment. Michael Schumacher, then a Benetton driver, bought a yellow EB 110 Super Sport in 1994, contributing to the model's notoriety. This Bugatti quickly became a symbol of success in the 1990s, rubbing shoulders with McLaren F1s and Ferrari F40s in the garages of the wealthiest collectors.
Unfortunately, the Italian economic crisis and Artioli's financial difficulties precipitated the fall of this renaissance. In 1995, the factory closed its doors, leaving several chassis and ambitious projects like the EB 112 sedan unfinished. This industrial tragedy transformed the EB 110 into an even more valuable collector's item, a testament to an era when technical audacity rivaled economic realities.
Today, surviving EB 110s command astronomical prices at auction, with some examples exceeding one million euros. This rarity and tumultuous history give each miniature a special dimension, that of preserving the memory of a supercar that could have changed the history of the automobile.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?

What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
