A 1979, Silver Teal Type 35, Bugatti replica, on show at the 2018 London Classic Car Show
Depending on who you talk to, anything between 160 and 320 Teals were built between 1983 and 1998, with the early ones made from GRP body panels and Morris Marina running gear. Sure, it's not quite the straight eight of the original, but it's a solid-enough engine. ore recent Teals get an aluminium body (of which this is one), and engines that range in source from MGBs to Triumph straight sixes, Rover units, Fiat-Lancia twin-cams and even the odd Jaguar unit. Rather inconveniently, the vendor of this car doesn't actually say what particular motor lies beneath that long bonnet, but you'd have to hope it's one of the more interesting powerplant So there you have it, a bargain way to feel at least vaguely like you're driving a pre-war racing icon. Though we would politely suggest that perhaps you shouldn't park it next to a 'proper' Bugatti if you pay a visit to La Vie en Bleu at Prescott hill climb this
