This is a quote from that link, you would have thought that Bonhams would have written to the owner who would have been an old man and told him of its potential value rather than leave it rotting away, that way he could have enjoyed the money before he went and his family could have enjoyed the money a while ago too.
"James Knight, international head of Bonhams' motoring department, said: "I have known of this Bugatti for a number of years and, like a select group of others, hadn't dared divulge its whereabouts to anyone. "

Despite their posh names and noble reputations, the Auction Houses are just as manipulative and greedy as everyone else.
I don't think this Bug will go for anything like 6 million: it's not a historical race car or one of the handful of the holy grail Type 57SC Atlantic models. Unless moneybags Chris Evans is in the room of course!!!
