Sorry but V Derrington owned several Bugatti and this one is not a T57 !
Furthermore, I don't think that it is him who is responsible of the body !

On another site it was identified as bodywork by V. W. Derrington Ltd., Kingston-on-Thames, UK. But it's not for sure I guess. The car is the Bugatti T43, #43239 with T44 engine, formerly registered as GK17.

Thanks. So the advert described the car incorrectly as regards the engine/chassis.
