The T150 - certainly my favourite pre-war car. The front of the Bugatti is a bit horrific and not nearly as nicely finished/integrated as Figoni et Falaschi's masterpiece. The Talbot-Lago also has a sweeping curve that goes the length of the side profile - the Bugatti isn't as consistent. It's all in the details for me.
Both beautiful of course but it would be an easy choice for me and the Talbot-Lago tends to go for £1.5-2m IIRC (so a fair bit cheaper).
My favourite Bugatti is probably the Type-51.
I'm also a big fan of Voisin's efforts and America's beautiful Cords, Duesenbergs, Cadillacs, Auburns etc.; cars from that era were so beautiful and individual.
