BE 666 | Two Reventóns. One extraordinary history. 🇨🇭

Few Swiss registrations have a history quite like BE 666, having been associated with not one, but two Lamborghini Reventóns.

Limited to just 20 Coupés and 15 Roadsters worldwide, these two examples share an even rarer feature: both were fitted with comfort seats, reportedly making them the only two Reventóns ever produced with this specification.

The 2008 Reventón Coupé (VIN: ZHWBE77S08LA03516) was spotted wearing BE 666 in Geneva in 2017. A remarkable photograph captures its collection from a Lamborghini dealership, with the owner arriving in his manual Lamborghini Murciélago LP670-4 SV, reportedly one of just five manual examples and featuring the factory low-drag configuration.

The Coupé later appeared at Bonhams in 2024 with just 4,864 km, while the 2010 Reventón Roadster (VIN: ZHWBE91N9ALA03997) sold for CHF 1,955,000 in 2019. After changing hands again at Broad Arrow’s 2025 auction, the Roadster is now being actively enjoyed, with sightings across Europe.

The same collector also received the first Lamborghini Urus delivered to a customer by Lamborghini Porrentruy, likewise wearing BE 666. Another extraordinary photograph captures both Reventóns parked side by side.

Beyond these Lamborghinis, BE 666 has appeared on a black Aventador S, Aston Martin DBS Superleggera and white Audi RS6 Avant. Following a change of hands, it was also spotted on an Abarth 595 and Mercedes-AMG G63, before resurfacing in Gstaad in 2026 on a dark green Aston Martin DBS 770 Ultimate.

From two exceptionally rare Reventóns to an incredible collection of supercars, where do you think BE 666 will appear next?

😲 The Somerset Hoard: seven cars, more than eighty years of silence

‘You sell old cars, don’t you? I have a few I’d like to sell. They belonged to my grandfather and haven’t moved since the 1930s.’ These are the words every enthusiast hopes someone will one day whisper in their ear. Preferably followed by an invitation to come and have a look. Usually, it remains a dream. Occasionally, however, a barn door opens somewhere and the reality proves every bit as extraordinary.

That is the feeling inspired by the Somerset Hoard: those words were whispered to a well-known car dealer. And 3 hours later he opened the door which resulted in seven early motor cars which have emerged in Somerset after more than eighty years out of use. You may already have spotted the advertisements. On 30 October, they will be offered by @bonhamscars in London. Whether this is the barn find of the decade is open to debate. For anyone interested in the earliest days of motoring, it is certainly a discovery worth taking a closer look at.

BE 4, The story of one of Switzerland’s most recognisable Bugatti Chirons. 🇨🇭

Some number plates have a history of their own. BE 4 is certainly one of them.

The story begins in 2020, when this Bugatti Chiron, finished in Atlantic Blue and French Racing Blue, was delivered new to a Bern-based collector reportedly known as Phakos. Initially registered as BE 1520, hypercar remained a remarkably rare sight on Swiss roads, occasionally appearing around the Bern region.

After being rarely spotted, the Chiron resurfaced in June 2023 at Bonhams’ Bonmont Sale, where it crossed the auction block for an impressive CHF 2.76m CHF incl fees and then later seen at APU in Uznach.

Its next chapter would make it considerably more recognisable.

Under its subsequent custodian, the Chiron received the prestigious BE 4 registration. No longer quite as elusive, the blue Bugatti became a regular attraction for car enthusiasts, with numerous sightings throughout Bern, Zürich and beyond.

In July 2024, this blue Chiron carrying Bernese registration made international headlines following a police crackdown on illegal motorway racing in Kosovo. Swiss media reported that the vehicle was among several high-performance cars involved in the incident, although the exact registration was not publicly confirmed.

The Chiron’s time wearing BE 4 eventually came to an end. After passing through BI Collection in Gstaad, the car reportedly found a new home where it has since been spotted wearing BL 8999.

But the story of BE 4 extends beyond the Bugatti. The prestigious single-digit registration has also been spotted on a Lamborghini Huracán STO, Rolls-Royce Ghost and Rolls-Royce Cullinan, reportedly all part of the same collection.

Different cars, different chapters, one extraordinary registration.

Last day of the @zoute_grand_prix. And again… behind every corner, we found another beauty.
The local police did extra time writing tickets for the pops & bangs Johnny’s, who don’t respect the unique character of this amazing gathering. See you next year, ZGP. We’ll be there 😉
