Chiron

Successor to the Veyron, the Chiron is named after Bugatti's Monégasque racing driver Louis Chiron, who was especially active in the 1920s and 1930s. The car is produced in various versions, with the 'base' model setting you back by about $3 million.


There are plenty of 1:24 scale Chiron models available, in a wide range of colours (good that I made a rule not to go for different colours of the same model!). I got mine, new, for £19.99 (plus p&p) from Wonderland Models



The model is of good quality, with nice details inside, though only the doors open. I deliberately went for the white/blue colour scheme, to ensure it looks very different from my red/black Veyron model.

As the badge shows: #5!


And to take us back to the actual car, here is Supercar Blondie driving a Chiron:
