Bugatti Sports Cars Type 12-2 Concept Car

Bugatti Sports Cars Type 12-2 Concept Car

Here is a Bugatti Concept Car – Bugatti Type 12-2. Racer X has lifted the covers on a new concept vehicle they are calling the Bugatti Type 12-2 concept car which is highlighted by ample storage space and new practical designs. Bugatti is a most famous sports car manufacture, so it is just about power, speed, luxury and everything, designed especially for those who love speed, comfort and style.

Bugatti Type 12-2 concept has been created as a 2+2 sports GT for the Bugatti brand. it is not intended for production. Designed as an example of a luxurious four seater GT, the type 12-2 is the artwork of Reuben Zammit.

The idea is to use a VW derived W12 engine with a twin turbo layout hence the name 12-2. Although not as extravagant as the W16 used in the Veyron, there would be enough power to propel the Type 12-2 to over 200 mph. Every time it competed with 4 different demo cars in 2 different classes for bodystyling.

On the subject of performance, things get considerably more hypothetical. This being purely a design study (and not even a Bugatti-commissioned one) any power-train speculation should be taken with more than a few grains of salt. Racer X's specified FR configuration seems to eliminate the Veyron's all-wheel drive, quad-turbo W-16 configuration. Meanwhile, the name "12-2" seems to hint at a 12-cylinder mill sleeping beneath the coupe's hood.

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport 2011

La marque italienne, propriété de Volkswagen, va encore plus loin dans le superlatif avec une nouvelle édition de sa Veyron, la 16.4 Super Sport. Ce bolide s'offre 20 % de puissance en plus tout en s'octroyant une vitesse maximale record! Elle va aussi plus loin en termes de pollution avec des émissions de CO2 tellement inacceptable qu'elles n'ont même pas été communiquées...

Bugatti tient à rester le leader en puissance... et en pollution. Pour preuve, la marque vient de dévoiler la Veyron 16.4 Super Sport. Son but: reprendre la première place au Guinness Book des voitures les plus rapide, tout en laissant largement de coté l'aspect environnemental. Avec 431,072 km/h en pointe réalisé sur le circuit de Volkswagen à Ehra-Lessien, et des chiffres d'émissions de CO2 si impressionnants qu'ils n'ont pas été annoncés, on peut aisément dire que l'objectif est atteint.

Pour arriver à surclasser toutes ses concurrentes en terme de puissance (en termes de CO2 aussi d'ailleurs), cette Veyron 16.4 Super Sport s'est offert le 16 cylindres en W de ses soeurs, mais avec 20 % de puissance en plus. A coté de ses 1 200 chevaux (882 kW), son 8 litres a aussi vu son couple bondire de quelques 250 Nm pour arriver à 1 500 Nm. De quoi revendiquer les 431 km/h en pointe. Néanmoins, pour protéger les pneus, la vitesse des modèles de production sera limitée à 415 km/h.

Pour plus d'aérodynamisme, les entrées d'air situées au-dessus du moteur ont été remplacées par deux buses d'air "NACA" sur le toit. Les grandes prises d'air à l'avant on un nouveau design. La coque en carbone a aussi été revue, elle se compose d'une nouvelle fibre offrant plus de résistance à la torsion. Elle est par contre plus légère.

Comme d'habitude, ces engins inaccessibles seront limités en production. Ici, seulement 5 exemplaires sont prévus (ouf, on évite ainsi le désastre écologique!), mais ils sont déjà tous partis. Cette version, avec sa livrée spéciale bicolore noir et orange "World Record Edition" sera présentée en première à la mi-août en Californie au Quail Meadow, à Laguna Seca et à Pebble Beach. La production débutera à l'automne.

The Schlumph collection, also known as the Malmerspach collection

Over the years nearly 400 items (vehicles, chassis and engines) were acquired, A team of up to 40 carpenters, saddlers, and master mechanics were assembled to carry out the restoration work.

They were under a confidentiality agreement to keep their work and the scale of the collection a secret - a singlemindedness often referred to as "The Schlumpf Obsession." Many, including irate members of Bugatti clubs around the world, knew of the collection; although the eventual scale of the enterprise became a surprise to almost everybody.

In 1976 the Schlumpf brothers had begun to sell their factories. In October the Malmerspach plant laid off employees, and a strike broke out, with 400 police holding back the workers from ram sacking the Mulhouse plant.

After a stand-off, on March 7, 1977, textile union activists staged a sit-in strike at the Schlumpf offices, and broke into the Mulhouse "factory" to find the astounding collection of cars. An unrestored Austin 7 was burned and the workers' union representative remarked "There are 600 more where this one came from."
The Schlumpfs fled to their native Switzerland, and spent the rest of their days as permanent residents of the Drei Koenige Hotel. But with wages outstanding, the factory was occupied for the next two years by the textile union and renamed "Workers’ Factory." To recoup some of their lost wages, the union opened the museum to the public, with some 800,000 people viewing the collection in two years.
As the scale of the brothers Schlumpf debt rose, various creditors including the unions eyed the valuable car collection as a way to recover their losses. To save the destruction, break-up or export of the collection, in 1978 the contents were classified as a French historic monument by the Council of State. In 1979, a bankruptcy liquidator ordered the building closed.

In 1981 the collection, buildings and residual land were sold to the National Automobile Museum, now the largest automobile museum in the world . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mus%C3%A9e_National_de_l

62 cars of this collection from the Schlumpf collection were bought in 2008, and 12 will now be in the Peter Mullin Collection in Oxnard, in the former Otis Chandler museum, Otis Chandler’s collection is closed but to reopen soon as the “The Vintage Museum of Transportation”

http://www.bugattirevue.com/revue35/malmer.htm

The American Bugatti club is going to stop by the Mullin museum during their 50th Anniversary Celebration of the club and the US International 2010 Bugatti Rally.

Peter Mullin is a founding member of the Petersen Automotive Museum Foundation and served as Foundation Co-Chairman from 1994 to 2004.
