I would agree, had I not seen much better Teal recreations. As a regular visitor to Prescott, home of the Bugatti Owners' Club, I think I have a reasonable eye. The blue was far too bright and shiny, as was the cockpit. The chequer plate ally in the footwell was (IMHO) hideous. Apart from the time clock, the instruments looked way too new.
A good few years ago, also at Prescott, the Teal Owners Club turned up with a six car convoy. Some were not only correctly coloured and suitably distressed, but had dummy friction dampers. One was even towing a 'half a Bugatti' trailer. If I find the analogue photo' I'll post it. That was a £30k car if ever I saw one!
