About the Bugatti EB110 Green Metallic Bburago 1:18

TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast reproduces the Bugatti EB110 in green metallic, the quad-turbocharged supercar that relaunched the Bugatti marque in 1991 under Romano Artioli. The zinc alloy body includes opening panels, and captures the carbon-monocoque supercar's low, wide stance at an accessible price point.

Romano Artioli's revival of Bugatti in the late 1980s produced one of the most technically ambitious supercars of its era, a quad-turbocharged V12 driving all four wheels through a carbon fibre monocoque years before that construction became common at the top of the market. Bburago's mass-market diecast puts that engineering story on a shelf at a price the original never offered.

Romano Artioli's Bugatti Revival and the EB110

A Carbon Monocoque Supercar Ahead of Its Time

Bugatti had been dormant since the Second World War when Italian entrepreneur Romano Artioli relaunched the marque in 1987, commissioning an entirely new factory at Campogalliano and a car intended to prove the name still meant something at the absolute cutting edge of automotive engineering. The EB110, named for Ettore Bugatti's 110th birthday, debuted in 1991 with a carbon fibre monocoque chassis, a construction method Formula 1 had only recently adopted and that competing supercar manufacturers were still years from using in a production road car. That ambition, more than sales figures, is why the EB110 still commands serious respect among people who actually understand what went into building it.

Scissor Doors and a Quad-Turbo V12

The V12 was mounted centrally and fed by four turbochargers, an unusual choice when most rivals settled for one or two, and it drove all four wheels through a permanent all-wheel-drive system at a time when supercars were still overwhelmingly rear-driven. Scissor doors, hinged to lift up and forward rather than swing outward, gave the EB110 a dramatic party trick that few contemporaries could match and that immediately signalled its exotic ambitions to anyone watching. Bburago's casting includes opening panels, and lifting one open still captures some of the theatre that made the real car's entry so memorable.

Bburago's Mass-Market Approach to an Exotic Subject

Zinc Alloy Construction at an Accessible Tier

Bburago built its reputation on bringing exotic and unattainable cars within reach of a far wider audience than the originals ever addressed, and the EB110 sits squarely within that mission. The zinc alloy body carries real weight for its size, and the opening panels operate on tolerances typical of production-scale diecast rather than the tighter fits a hand-finished resin piece would achieve. That is an honest trade-off rather than a shortcoming: a buyer gets genuine metal construction, opening panels, and correct proportions, at a fraction of what a limited-run alternative would cost.

Green Metallic Paint Over Low, Wide Proportions

Green metallic paint suits the EB110's low, wide stance particularly well, since the colour's depth reveals the car's flat bonnet line and aggressive haunches under directed light in a way flatter tones can flatten out. Bburago keeps the EB110's proportions honest at 1:18: a genuinely low roofline, a wide rear track dictated by the all-wheel-drive hardware beneath it, and the distinctive horseshoe grille that nodded to Bugatti's pre-war heritage while looking entirely modern. Getting that grille shape right matters, since it is the single detail most likely to betray a poorly researched EB110 reproduction.

The EB110 Among Early-1990s Supercars

The EB110 arrived into a supercar landscape dominated by the Ferrari F40 and the newly launched McLaren F1 project, and it never achieved anything like their commercial success or lasting fame, in part because Bugatti's finances collapsed by 1995 after producing only a modest number of cars. That commercial failure has, paradoxically, made the EB110 more interesting to serious collectors over time, since it represents a genuine engineering dead-end explored fully rather than a car compromised by cost-cutting or corporate caution. Few other manufacturers were willing to combine a carbon monocoque, quad turbochargers and permanent all-wheel drive in a single road car during this period, and the EB110 did all three at once. For anyone building a collection around early-1990s supercars, pairing this with an F40 or a period Lamborghini Diablo tells a more complete story about how differently manufacturers were solving the same performance problem. That gap between the EB110's engineering ambition and its commercial fate is exactly the kind of story a diecast collection can preserve more affordably than the collector car market ever will.

Where This EB110 Fits a Supercar Shelf

This EB110 rewards a buyer drawn to overlooked engineering stories rather than the most famous name on the grid. At roughly 24 centimetres in 1:18, it holds its own beside taller, wider supercar neighbours, and the zinc body's mass keeps its opening panels settled once raised rather than drooping under their own weight. Green metallic paint makes it a genuine colour standout against the reds and yellows that dominate most 1990s supercar shelves. For a collector who already owns the obvious F40s and Countaches, the EB110 supplies the conversation piece those more famous cars cannot. That scarcity of survivors makes an accessible diecast reproduction more valuable to the story, not less, since most collectors will never see a real EB110 in person.
