Bill Drysdale, an advisor of Bulgaria's outgoing Premier, bid farewell to Bulgaria in an original way Wednesday.
He welcomed friends and partners to a demonstration of his 1928 BMW DIXI 750 cc, the most valuable piece in his collection of old-style automobiles.
The party took place at the newly opened ultramodern showroom of BMW and MINI in Sofia.
After leaving Bulgaria, Drysdale plans to go on a tour with the car to collect funds for charity.
Bill Drysdale owns a total of 12 retro cars, which are currently displayed in Scotland.
