Good chance that you know 'dutch diva' Rosemarijn Atalante Venenbos from her numerous super-enthusiast postings in social media. With her burgundy 'poorman's bugatti' named Amillion she's throwing up dust and turning necks in the vintage car scene. Don't think that the Atalante part is a later added nickname. Atalante is in her passport and possibly also in her genes. Today her observations at a recent meet of Dutch Bugatti owners.
"An angy roaring T35B, a fire spitting T43, a T57 Stelvio and Ventoux passing by like a thunder storm, a cute red dragon CGS car... You had to be quick to get a glimpse of the Bugattis racing over the roads of the south Dutch countryside. The Dutch Bugatti Club had a party to celebrate for the 60th anniversary, so we all gathered to put the region Brabant up side down! You may think that a Bugatti is hard to get, but this club shows something you would not expect. Youngsters driving Bugattis! Arrogance...? We have never heard of this word in the club. We just like wake up and run to the cars to prep them for the day and of course followed by lots of loud music produced by Bugatti engines while getting the needed dose of exhaust fumes to get a little bit high. The Bugattists are a special species, and they know how to handle the Molsheim creatures... Overtaking each other all the time and making sure to use the cars as Ettore would have wanted, what they are made for, accelerating and speeding. They are just not made to break. And that's something we celebrate all the time, so there we go... VIVE LA MARQUE!!! (while firing a miniature cannon, why not?)"
