Car Types

There were many different car types in 1910 - 1920 England as this was the era where the first cars were being made and created.
As said in the earlier post about '1910 to 1920 car transportation' The car was used for long distances and were only really owned by the rich.

• BUGATTI - A french car Manufacturer which was first founded in 1909 by Ettore Bugatti in German city Molsheim. These cars were very well known for their design which was often referred to as 'beauty'. Ettore Bugatti was from a family of Artists so considered himself as an Artistic constructor. After the death of Ettore the company struggled finding a new successor and therefore struggled financially for many years. In the 1990's the company got taken over by an italian entrepreneur who revived the company as a sports brand - what we know as Volkswagen.

Reflection - I got some great information about the cars in the 20th Century however i used a lot of wikipedia and reflecting back i wish i had gone through some books on this topic. In saying this, as my project changed into being more about social class differences within the decade and within films, i didn't feel i needed this piece of research as much as others. Though it would help me make an authentic production based in the 1910's/1920's.
