Bugantics

July 7, 2014

• The club magazine least affected by the vagaries of fashion is Bugantics, the house journal of the Bugatti O C — its cover has remained the same since before the war. Prices of the older originals, however, have ballooned, prompting the Club to organise a set of reprints of all 50 pre-war issues from 1931-39. They are the same size, with covers in the same card, plus paper mono covers for binding. It’s all or nothing, though no single issues or years. The full set is £165 inc P&P, from the BOC HQ, Prescott, Gotherington, Cheltenham, Glos GL52 4RD. An Index will be available soon. G C

Deputy editor

Bravely ignoring his degree in industrial design after discovering night rallies in a Renault 8, GC joined Motor Sport by accident, in the Teesdale days around 1982 when Jenks and WB were office regulars and Mr Tee ruled with a rod of cardboard. He took part in some of the early historic rallies, winning one of the Pirelli Marathons, and regularly runs his Mk2 Jaguar in road events.
