Fugly but valuable...

[05h2sut]

Relatives of a Newcastle based doctor have inherited a classic car worth up to ?3m ($4.35m). The car which was left in a garage gathering dust for 50 years will be sold at auction. Have you inherited any unusual or valuable gifts?

Relatives of Dr Harold Carr inherited the contents of a lock-up garage when he died in 2007. His nephew discovered the car, a 1937 Bugatti Atalante Type 57S, in the lock-up alongside a classic Aston Martin, and a Jaguar E-type.

The Bugatti was originally owned by Earl Howe - first president of the British Racing Drivers' Club, and was one of only 17 to be built.

James Knight, international head of Bonhams' motoring department, said: "It is absolutely one of the last great barn discoveries." Dr Carr's nephew, an engineer from Newcastle, said: "We just can't believe it."
