The Bugatti type 30 torpédo is one of the Bugatti entries the open record knows by name and by date — in 1925, and by little else. That is not nothing: a name in the catalogue is where a car's story starts to be recoverable.

Family and rivals

On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Tatra 17, the Rolls-Royce Twenty limousine, the Rolls-Royce Phantom I. Its Bugatti stablemates include the Bugatti 57 Galibier and the Bugatti 8-cylinder line.

The money

There is no federal ownership record for the Bugatti type 30 torpédo — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.

The record

The open record for the Bugatti type 30 torpédo carries no verified engine, output, weight or price yet. MotorJury does not fill gaps with guesses; this entry gives the model a home in the catalogue and grows as sourced specifications and photographs arrive. Corrections: corrections@motorjury.com.
