Very busy on my job recently which cause me almost abandon my blog, haaa :) But now at least im back !!!
Just found a amazing news from Top Gear, A rebuild 1925 Bugatti which was winched from lake Maggiore.
The story is like this,
Forgotten Bugatti
Once upon a time, a Zurich architect brought this car over the border of France without paying import duites. So when customs officers caught him up in 1937, demanding more in taxes than the Bug was worth, he destroyed the car by tipping it into Lake Moggiore which he attached a heavy chain so that he could drag it back out once the taxmen had gone (Very impressive).

Unfortunately the chain rusted away and cause the car sank 53m below the surface. It lay forgotten until last summer the car was winched from the lake and put up for auction by Bonhams with a price of 70,000GBP.


Now, this is what i call a great investment. I smell a lots of fishy...But luckily its for charity fund raising.
Bad news for crabs
