Welcome WHAT A YEAR! IT WOULD BE NAIVE TO CLAIM THAT THE WORLD is completely back to normal, and there have been some terrible losses along the way, but concours events globally have certainly bounced back.

So, welcome to our fourth edition of The Concours Year, the biggest one we’ve produced so far, thanks to the proliferation of new and expanded events around the world. Unlike in the previous two editions, there’s just a single instance of postponed-due-to-Covid in this year’s book.

There have been some fascinating developments, too, with many of the big concours upping their games. The most obvious news is the continued expansion of Hagerty into the events arena, which we talk about some more in the ‘What happened in 2022’ feature a few pages on from here.

Plenty of other concours have grown in quality, size or both for 2022 as well, and we’ve seen new events added, including our own Concours on Savile Row, which I’m delighted to say was a great success, and returns to London’s famous tailoring street for May 2023.

Even more heartening is that the top-level cars just keep on coming, and the quality of restoration and preservation continues to improve, as does owners’ involvement. The automobiles you see now are more likely to be driven and to be faithful to their original builds than ever before. It’s wonderful to see.

So enjoy delving into this comprehensive compendium of winning cars – and if you want to obtain further copies, you can order them on our website, www.magnetomagazine.com/store. See you on the concours field in 2023!

Welcome WELCOME TO THE FOURTH EDITION OF THE CONCOURS YEAR. This is the biggest and best yet, with 272 pages featuring more than 50 leading events in North America, Europe, Middle East, Australia and New Zealand.

Inside, you’ll find every special award, class and best of show winner, making this a fascinating browse and an excellent reference about the concours scene – even for working out what to show at a concours!

2022 was an important, resurgent year in our world. Attendance picked up right where it left off after the previous years’ disruption. New events emerged, including the Detroit Concours, the Motorcar Cavalcade in Florida, Concours on Savile Row, Salon Privé London and Cavallino Classic Middle East. We saw more preservation classes, more modern classic and ‘youngtimer’ classes and more associated rallies. Restorations are very clearly improving all the time, with more emphasis on originality. (Judges’ understanding and appreciation of restorations is improving, as well.)

Also noteworthy: We saw a number of organisers reimagining their events with an eye toward attracting a wider demographic. That’s smart. If the concours world is to continue thriving, it’s incumbent upon us to engage people of all generations, interests and income levels. In doing so, we provide what I like to call ‘on-ramps’ to both our events and to the larger collector car hobby. It’s my belief that once people are exposed to great cars and great car people, they tend to stick around.

Please enjoy this year’s issue. Onward and upward!

What happened in 2022?

Oh, not much…

Just a few exciting new events, complete revamps of established concours, stunning previously unseen collections and last-minute attempts to escape inclement weather WOR D S DAVID L IL LYWHI TE

FROM TOP LEFT The Amelia and the Detroit Concours d’Elegance events now come under the auspices of Hagerty.

T

THERE WAS TALK IN 2020 AND ’21 THAT PERHAPS visitors wouldn’t return to car events, having settled into more stay-at-home lives during the pandemic. Well, 2022 has certainly blown that theory out of the water. What we’ve seen instead is a return to pre-pandemic visitor numbers – or better, in most cases – and efforts by many organisers to offer more attractions.

The obvious big news is insurance company Hagerty taking on further major events in the US. After its acquisition of the much-loved Greenwich Concours from the Wennerstrom family in 2019, Hagerty made a similar deal with everyone’s favourite concours organiser Bill Warner of the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, renaming it The Amelia in the process. It followed that by rescuing the Concours d’Elegance of America (previously Meadow Brook, then St Johns) and moving it to downtown Detroit, to become the Detroit Concours d’Elegance.

All three concours now follow similar formats, aimed at increasing visitor appeal across the age groups, with star turns from the ever-popular clunkers of Concours d’Lemons and the modern cool of RADwood, along with informal Cars & Coffee gatherings. It’s been largely successful, although there were some comments after The Amelia that entry prices had risen and that the concours field wasn’t as heavily populated with automobiles as in previous years. Coming so early in the year, Amelia was always going to be difficult, however, even with Bill Warner still overseeing proceedings. As for the Detroit Concours, the striking central location at the Detroit Institute of Arts proved a big hit, and likely attracted visitors who’d never have ventured onto an out-of-town golf links.

Does it matter that the formats of the Hagerty-owned events are the same? Not really – hardened concours-goers will be focused on the Sunday main event, while locals will have more

15

to see without worrying that other events at different times of the year and at very different venues hundreds of miles away are running the same shows. And anyway, those shows won’t have the same car entries, so it all makes great sense.

Events company Canossa is also becoming more influential in this scene, having taken over the renowned Cavallino Classic Ferrari concours in Palm Beach, and then expanding the brand to the Middle East and to the marque’s home in Modena.

Expect more to come from Canossa.

And elsewhere? Well, London gained two new concours, the first being Salon Privé London. Taking place on the lawns of the striking Royal Chelsea Hospital, this stood the traditional concours format on its head by only showing cars for sale; usually such models are discouraged. It’s worth noting, too, that its parent event, Salon Privé at Blenheim Palace later in the year, expanded its appeal by creating a live sprint stage, while rival Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace added an all-women’s rally and concours, plus a highly successful Gooding & Company auction.

The second London addition was Concours on Savile Row – and here we have to admit some bias, because it was our own event, taking over the famous East Mayfair street that’s so well known for its bespoke tailors and shoemakers. By pairing car

manufacturers with the tailors, we were able to offer craft demonstrations, specialist talks and VIP areas, while keeping the event free to attend for visitors. It felt like a great success, and will occur annually – on May 24-25 in 2023.

Some things don’t change, though; Pebble Beach was still the concours highlight of the year, with eye-poppingly strong entries.

Best of Show was, as is usually the case, a pre-war coachbuilt.

It’s hard to see how this could be anything else – and as long as Pebble’s classes and other Monterey Car Week events continue to reflect changing demographics with later models, that’s okay.

And don’t forget that quiet star of the European scene, Chantilly Arts et Elegance, which once again excelled with its mix of concepts and classics at a stunning venue (just as the more established Villa d’Este does). This year, our highlight was sponsor Richard Mille’s stunning BRM collection, never before seen to this extent in public and brought up to date with the new V16 Continuation.

Save of the year has to go to both the Sydney Harbour Concours, which achieved a last-minute change of venue amid torrential rain and flooding, and the Audrain Newport Concours, which somehow transformed a quagmire into a passable show field overnight. Ascona, too, pulled off an 11th-hour switch of venue to save it from the weather. Concours 3: Mother Nature 0.

RIGHT Just 25 of the track-inspired GMA T.50s model will be built.

CONCE P T L AWN 2 0 2 2 Ever more manufacturers have sought to use concours events to launch new visions of the future. Here are some of our top picks of the year WOR D S NAT H AN C H ADW IC K

ASTON MARTIN DBR 22 Built to mark the tenth anniversary of Q, Aston Martin’s own bespoke division, the DBR22 won big at Chantilly Arts & Elegance. It’s easy to see why, thanks to the model’s coachbuilt design that pays tribute to classic Aston racers such as the DBR1 and DB3S. It’s powered by a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 that, thanks to the entirely carbonfibre body, means it can hit 0-60mph in 3.4 seconds before hitting the limiter at 198mph. Peak outputs are 705bhp and 555lb ft.

ASTON MARTIN VANTAGE V12 Aston Martin followed up its beloved V12 Vantage series by shoehorning the 5.2-litre twinturbo V12 from the DB11 into 333 Vantages. With 700PS and 752Nm, it is the most powerful Vantage ever, and can crack 200mph and 0-60mph in 3.4 seconds.

BENTLEY BATUR AND SPEED SIX The Batur represents the future of Bentley, and is a celebration of the marque’s most recent past. The car

20

is intended to show the brand’s future styling direction in the EV era, but it kisses goodbye to the W12 internal-combustion engine with a 1000Nm, 740PS farewell. A mere 18 are to be built by Bentley’s Mulliner department in Crewe.

In stark contrast, in 2022 the Mulliner division also revealed its second Continuation model – this time by recreating the legendary 1928-30 Speed Six model.

CZINGER 21C VMAX The Czinger uses 3D printing and AI design to come up with the 21C hypercar – a 2.88-litre twinturbo V8 and 800V electric-drive monster with a peak power output of 1233bhp. It can hit 0-60mph in 1.9 seconds, 186mph in 8.5 seconds and top out at 253mph. Power goes to all four wheels via a seven-speed sequential gearbox, and it weighs just 1250kg. Only 80 are to be built.

GMA T.33 AND T.50 s Gordon Murray, the confectioner of hyper-speed machines for McLaren and several Formula 1 teams, ruffled feathers with the announcement of his T.50 fan car

in 2021. It features a 650PS V12 that revs to 12,000rpm, and just 100 are to be made, all with a three-seater layout. A track-inspired version of the car, called the T.50s, cuts weight to 890kg, while the power goes up, too. Just 25 of these will be made. The T.33, meanwhile, is a two-seat mid-engined V12 with 600PS on tap. It revs to 11,100rpm, and again only 100 will be made.

HEALEY BY CATON Blending the talents of JME Healeys and panel-maker Envisage (famous for its work on Jaguar’s XKSS and D-type Continuation models), this takes the AustinHealey 100 into restomod territory with a fresh approach to the exterior and interior (courtesy of Bridge of Weir) while retaining the original car’s style. Each one uses a 3.0-litre (up from 2.6) straight-four with 185bhp and 195lb ft, delivered to the road via a five-speed manual gearbox. A mere 25 will be made.

HISPANO SUIZA CARMEN BOULOGNE This hyper-performance all-electric car made its debut in the US this

T year after stunning European audiences back in 2021. It boasts 1099bhp and a more trackorientated focus than the normal Carmen, and is crafted almost entirely from carbon. The 700-cell, 700V lithium-ion pack provides the motive power, and it can zip along for 250 miles before needing to recharge. Going from 30 percent charge to 80 percent takes just half an hour. The four-motor set-up

drives the rear wheels only, and it can hit 0-62mph in 2.6 seconds.

KIMERA 037 Inspired by the Lancia 037, and developed by Miki Biasion and the late Mauro Forghieri, this goes beyond a restomod. Although it uses a Lancia Beta Montecarlo (or Scorpion in the US) as its base, it’s been comprehensively developed to produce between 420bhp and

505bhp, thanks to being both supercharged and turbocharged. It made its US debut this year.

MASERATI MC20 CIELO Maserati debuted the drop-top version of its MC20 supercar in 2022. This mid-engined, carbontubbed supercar boasts clever F1inspired dual-spark technology in its 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged V6.

That means 621bhp, 538lb ft of

torque, and 62mph in just three seconds, with 124mph popping up a smidge over six seconds later.

MCLAREN ARTURA This hybrid supercar made its UK debut at the Concours on Savile Row, wowing the crowd with its all-new twin-turbo 3.0-litre V6, aided by a compact 94bhp axial-flux E-motor. This results in 670bhp and 531lb ft. With a weight of 1498kg, the car can hit 0-62mph in 3.0 seconds and 124mph in 8.3.

MEYERS MANX 2.0 For this, the star of The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, the VW engine that powered the original dune buggies has been stripped away, to be replaced with either a 20kWh or a 40kWh battery pack.

Just like the original Manx, the 2.0 is rear-wheel drive, with two electric motors at either end of the axle. The chassis is an all-aluminium monocoque affair, styling is by Freeman Thomas and it’s specified with independent rear suspension, disc brakes and power steering, along with a regenerative rear braking system. It will do 200 miles on a charge, and accelerate from 0-60mph in just 4.5 seconds.

MOSTRO BARCHETTA ZAGATO POWERED

BY MASERATI Just five of these roofless racing cars for the road are being built.

Constructed almost entirely from carbonfibre, the car is powered by a 4.2-litre Maserati-sourced V8 with 400bhp on tap, matched to a sequential manual gearbox.

POLESTAR 6 Inspired by the Polestar 02 concept car, the 6 is the Swedish EV firm’s

take on a high-performance electric roadster. It has 872bhp on tap, hits 62mph in 3.2 seconds and tops out at 155mph – and can carry four people up to 300 miles. The First Edition has already sold out, but the general order book should be open around now.

SINGER TURBO STUDY Singer founder Rob Dickinson’s first ride in a 911 was in a 930 Turbo, and now his firm has moved to producing a fresh take on one of the car world’s most legendary nameplates. The Turbo Study uses a 964-era 911 as its basis, and pours a 3.8-litre twin-turbo aircooled flatsix into the back to deliver at least 450bhp. Four- or two-wheel-drive options are available, and you can specify ABS, carbon-ceramic brakes and traction control – along with almost everything you can think of.

SVE OLETHA COUPÉ Smit wowed crowds in 2021 with its curvaceous take on a retrofuturistic BMW coupé called the Oletha. That was powered by a 4.4-litre V8 with in excess of 450bhp. This year, SVE returned with a 3.4-litre straight-six version, boasting 400bhp and an 8000rpm rev limit. A six-gear manual transmission is offered, and the body is crafted from carbonfibre.

TUTHILL 911K Revered Porsche rally-preparation specialist Tuthill has produced its ultimate vision of the back-tobasics 911. The K uses a 3.1-litre short-stroke four-valve flat-six engine with an 11,000rpm rev limit and a magnesium six-speed 915K manual gearbox in a carbonfibre body. As a result, the entire car weighs just 850kg.

What to expect in 2023

The forthcoming year sees more events – and some truly spectacular anniversaries.

We take a look at what’s waiting in the garage WOR D S NAT H AN C H ADW IC K

WITH LOCKDOWNS NOW HOPEFULLY just a painful memory for most around the world, the concours scene is set to bounce back even further in 2023. But what can we expect?

For starters, the Le Mans 24 Hours centenary will play a significant role across the globe, with Le Mans and Le Mans Classic already promising something spectacular – and Pebble Beach, the Goodwood events, The Amelia and many others planning special displays.

At a similar level, it will be the 75th anniversary of NASCAR, which will be celebrated across the US, and the 125th anniversary of Buick, which we know The Amelia and others will be marking.

Some iconic cars hit their 60th anniversary in 2023. Italy’s Motor Valley will pay tribute to the Ferrari 330 and the ATS 2500 GT, as well as six decades of the Lamborghini company.

Further afield, Maserati will be celebrating the Quattroporte and Mistral, while two other small Italian coupés go head-to-head – the Lancia Fulvia and Alfa Romeo 105/115 Series.

Italian design but with an American heart will also be a theme for 2023, with the likes of the Gordon-Keeble and Iso Grifo taking centre stage. If you’re a fan of stylish eight-cylinders, then the stunning Buick Riviera celebrates its big 6-0. However, if you prefer light and nimble cars, the Alpine A110, Abarth-Simca 2000 and Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ also all mark six decades.

In the German corner, the Mercedes-Benz SL Pagoda and 600 add some glitter to the threepointed star, but it’s hard to ignore the British this year – and largely for one model. Happy 60th, Aston Martin DB5…

FURTHER BACK Another Aston, the DB2/4, celebrates its 70th birthday alongside four true British sports car heroes: the AC Ace, Sunbeam Alpine, Triumph

TR2 and Austin-Healey 100. Germany’s Porsche 550 also marks seven decades, but the big celebrations have to come from America. The iconic Chevrolet Corvette is 70, along with the Bel Air and Cadillac Eldorado, while another giant of US motoring, the Packard Twelve, is 90.

BACK TO THE FUTURE Heading into the 1970s, it’s the 50th year for one of the more controversial Ferraris in Maranello’s long history – the Bertone-styled 308GT4.

Perhaps less controversial, but no less wedgy, the Maserati Khamsin also celebrates five decades of its deeply alternative thinking, both on the exterior and under the skin. However, if Italian eyes will be heading anywhere, it will be back to Maranello for the thunderous flat-12 Berlinetta Boxers, which brought Ferrari back to the table in the supercar battle against Lamborghini.

Moving to 1983, the RUF BTR – the Porsche 911 fettler’s first full production car – came out this year. It was a sensation on launch, beating the Lamborghini Countach 5000GW and Ferrari Testarossa in acceleration tests.

Changing tack completely, two icons of rugged motoring celebrate 40 years. The venerable Land Rover Defender replaced the Series models in 1983, and enraptured fans across the globe well into the 21st century. The Jeep Cherokee XJ also made its debut this year, and is a firm favourite among the RADwood set.

On that note, you may expect to see some 40-year-old Japanese icons given prominence this year, such as the Honda CRX and Nissan 300ZX. But if we had to put our money on one particular model, it would have to be the hugely influential (for a generation) Toyota AE86.

If that’s too niche, then how about a car that neatly brings us back to Le Mans – albeit via a stillborn attempt on the FIA GT Championship?

Porsche’s Carrera GT was originally going to be a Le Mans contender, but the project was suspended because funds were needed for the Cayenne SUV. The model – and its thunderous V10 – was brought back to life 20 years ago to create a legend as one of the last analogue, manual supercars.

Finally, Dinard Elégance returns in June, one of several events to take a year’s breather in 2022. Other comebacks include New Zealand’s Intermarque Concours and the Gstaad Concours.

Whatever your taste in cars, you can expect to find plenty you love in 2023.

“I’VE BEEN DOING IT FOR WHAT SEEMS LIKE FOREVER, and every year I say ‘I’m done’,” laughs Bruce Meyer, reflecting on the 26th Rodeo Drive Concours d’Elegance he’s organised.

His name is synonymous with the LA automobile scene – not only because he owns some of the world’s most storied racing and road cars, but he was also founding chairman of the Petersen Museum, and co-founded the Rodeo Drive Concours. The latter takes place on the infamous Beverly Hills shopping street; it’s free to visit, and in 2022, 50,000 people streamed through to take in the varied sights and sounds.

“There are beautiful store backgrounds, and a great display of cars,” Bruce says. “We deliberately keep a variety, from low riders to expensive classics, plus race and street cars. We have it all.”

However, even a chap with his long experience of being a concours entrant, as well as his level of organisational nous, had some anxieties going into 2022’s event, especially as this year marked the first proper return of the concours after the Covid crisis, as well as a new event-coordinating team.

“I was a little concerned – I have certain elements that mean a lot to me,” he says. “The sound system is one – I wanted the sound to carry the entire three blocks, and I wanted great music to play, because the ambience is important.”

That level of attention to detail is a fundamental part of Bruce’s character, but this year’s event was doubly challenging.

After Covid ruled out the usual concours event on Rodeo Drive in 2021, he came up with an alternate solution – a parade.

“We had great personalities and great cars touring three or four miles, from the Petersen Automotive Museum to the Beverly Hills Hotel,” he explains. This year, the concours was back – and so was the parade. “Our Mayor, a big car enthusiast, said she’d love it if we did the parade again. It was like putting together two separate events – one is enough!” He laughs again: “The challenge was moving the cars from the parade onto the street – but we made it, and it all worked out rather well.”

The concours proved to be extremely popular, underlying a general increased appetite for events.

“Covid made us realise how much we all love our freedom – to go out, breathe the air and be with our friends,” he says. “We had our Petersen Museum gala, and it was a packed house – everybody was enjoying their friendships. Covid was awful, but it gave people a real appreciation of feeling good. That will have a lasting effect.”

That sociable feeling extends to the cars that Bruce invites to

OPPOSITE AND BELOW Bruce’s own cars have won many accolades over the years.

the show. For example, his favourite from this year’s event – a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado convertible – was spotted by him on the street just two weeks beforehand. “I asked the owner to bring it to the concours – he didn’t know what the event was, but he said yes. He showed up and won a nice prize,” Bruce says. “This thing is a boat, 21 feet long – most cars are 18. It was restored beautifully; it was white with a red interior – it screamed Beverly Hills and my generation.”

Talking of generations, he foresees a shift in what will be appreciated by the next era of enthusiasts. “The genesis of concours was to show the latest in automotive style and fashion – I see a return to more contemporary cars in future,” he says. “I would expect to see more supercars, hypercars and concepts, because I think that’s what will inspire the younger generation and bring them out; 70- and 80-year-olds are not gonna be here forever.”

He points to the success of The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, as an example of this – but he adds that it’s not just the super-expensive, super-new cars that will garner attention: “When RADwood declares an event, people come.”

However, he’s clear about the key to broadening the appeal of concours. “Obviously content is important, but you have to make it accessible and affordable – it’s hundreds of dollars to go to Pebble Beach,” he says. “The shows have gotten so pricey, most people can’t afford the ticket. Our show is free, and it’s on Father’s Day. It’s a no-excuses day for dad, so the families come out.”

While Bruce is perhaps best known for his collection of Le Mans cars, another of his passions is hot rods, for which he’s done much to drive acceptance at concours events. Suitably, on the 90th anniversary of the ’32 Ford, he won the class at Pebble Beach.

“It’s always my favourite week, from the Historic races through to the concours. This year was special for me,” he says.

As both an entrant and an organiser, 2022 was a banner year for Bruce. His services to Beverly Hills were recognised by the community he has done so much for through his automotive endeavours. “They proclaimed the day to be Bruce Meyer Day – that was a big surprise and made me feel good, because the city really does appreciate the effort,” he says. But how long will that effort continue? “At the beginning of the day, I told my family that it would be my last one. By the end of the day, I was ready for next year.”

Which is about where we came in – and we’ve got a feeling he will be saying it again in 2023, too.

THE JUD GE

DR PAUL SABLE MAY HAVE BEEN CHIEF JUDGE 83 times at the world’s top concours over the past 30 years, but how his passion for cars developed is something we can probably all identify with. It began with his first toy car, which he still owns, but by five he was joining in with the neighbourhood alleyway ‘Indy 500’. “As we got older, we raced our wagons and box cars,” he recalls. “At ten, I started building models; I got pretty good.”

So good, in fact, that he ended up being lead writer for Car Model magazine. However, that’s still a long way from being a revered concours judge, an expert in post-war coachbuilt European cars – and a collector of what he calls ‘hyphen cars’, such as Dual-Ghias, of which he’s owned 25 of the 100 or so built, and a recently purchased Kaiser-Darrin.

It all began at age 30, when he was an associate academic dean. “Every summer the college held a community picnic day, so I thought about having a car show,” he recalls. He ended up drawing 500 vehicles – a lot for a midweek show. “A local charity in Allentown had a car nut on its board of directors, and asked if we could start a concours in Redding, Pennsylvania – so I was the founder of that show,” he says. At the time, the major concours were Pebble Beach and Meadowbrook (now the Detroit Concours). “There was no East Coast event, so it was easy to do. In five years, the press was making a big thing of The Triple Crown: Pebble, Meadowbrook and ourselves.”

Paul’s experience led to him being sought out for advice when a new generation of concours sprung up in the early 1990s, such as Amelia Island. “I was an unpaid consultant, just a friend helping out. They rewarded me by inviting me to be a judge,” he explains.

So, what makes a great event? “The quality and diversity of the vehicles on the field – that’s important,” he says. “Secondly, organisation – people don’t know how much it takes to put on an event like that, and a lot of concours fail on that. If the organisation sucks, the participants are unhappy, or the judges are unhappy. And then there’s marketing.”

He also advises making concours more of a learning experience. “Rather than have five of the same Duesenbergs, have something unusual, like Bugattis as well,” he advises.

Paul has seen big changes in that world, particularly over the past ten years. “Bill Warner with Amelia and Don Summers with Meadowbrook – these guys had a passion, they were going to do it,” he says. “Others thought, let’s have a concours, make some money. The charities thought it was easy money. But

BELOW Paul’s broad knowledge and experience make him a go-to for concours organisers.

many of them fell by the wayside. There’s a huge cost to putting on a concours – a lot more than just ‘hey, let’s have some cars’.”

He also believes the public appetite for the word concours itself may have become tired. “A lot of local weekend car shows started calling themselves concours, maybe getting a few classic cars in there. The public got affected by that,” he muses.

However, it’s the rapid growth of the Cars and Coffee movement that he believes will have a more lasting impact on shows: “Why do people go to shows? They like to show their vehicle and socialise. They like people coming up and saying, ‘oh, I had one of those!’ You could go to Cars and Coffee for two or three hours, rather than sit in the sun for seven hours at a regular car show.”

He also notes that major players are having a positive effect.

“Hagerty is changing the game radically, having bought Amelia, Greenwich and Detroit,” he says. “It’s good, because part of our problem is inclusion; we need to get more people involved.”

As an ex-marketing professor, Paul sees a big problem going forwards. “Baby-boomers are 78 million strong, the largest segment in the US population,” he says. “Well, the oldest will be 77, the youngest is 58. We grew up with the car – it gave us freedom, sex, the ability to travel places… Cars were important.”

Yet he doesn’t see the following generations viewing cars with the same appeal. “I was on a seminar with Wayne Carini and Ken Gross at Greenwich on the future of concours,” he chuckles. “I was kind of the naysayer – I was saying we won’t be around in ten years. They asked me what I meant, and then I went through the demographics – there are only 48m in Generation X.” To further illustrate his point, he cites the average age of club members. “In the Classic Car Club of America, it’s 74. At 65 people’s lives can change; they’re tired, they have no money and they don’t wanna do anything,” he says. He can’t do much about demographics, but he reiterates the need for better inclusion: “They asked me where concours will be in 50 years – I worry about the next five years.” That might seem a downbeat note, but Paul believes that there is a way to mitigate a decline.

“Different classes are the answer. This year I convinced Boca Raton to have a tuner class, and I was a pariah. But I said, listen, the tuner people right now are like me in the 1960s, when I customised my car and was told to go home by the classic folk,” he says. “These guys may or may not graduate to classics, but we need tuner and supercar classes. That’s the way to keep the hobby alive.”

THE RESTOR E R

BOB SMITH COACHWORKS HAS AN ENVIABLE record when it comes to concours success. “I have been attending Pebble Beach for 37 consecutive years – we have gone across the stage 54 times in 33 years, with multiple cars,” says company founder Bob. Sadly, this year he wasn’t able to get an entrant to Pebble Beach, for only the fourth time ever. “I’ve not completed a car this year due to delays in supplies and from vendors,” he explains. However, the Texas-based restoration firm is far from idle: “We are currently in the process of restoring eight automobiles,” Bob says, although he remains firmly tight-lipped as to what they are. “I have my favourites, but when a client gives us a car to be reborn as new – not only to look new, but to be safe, to work and to be as it appeared new – Coachworks has an obligation to ensure privacy for our clients.”

There’s certainly one marque that Bob loves most. “My favourite is always Ferrari,” he admits, and it’s his favourite to work on, too. “Especially the post-war era, before the computer age.”

Indeed, past projects have included some of Maranello’s tastiest metal, such as several versions of the 250 lineage, a 330 P4 and at least five 250GT Californias. He’s also restored the Giugiaro-styled 250GT SWB owned by Nuccio Bertone himself, and the 250GT Coupé Speciale originally built for the 1959 Geneva Motor Show and owned by the husband of Aniceta Agnelli, Emanuele Nasi. However, he’s at pains to point out that the love goes much further than Maranello: “If you have a passion for automobiles, it’s not easy to have a favourite – there are so many automobile manufacturers that use coachbuilders with their own unique signature.”

With so many concours-leading cars under his belt, Bob’s well placed to advise those seeking to embark on an event-winning restoration. “Don’t set a timeline on completion – there are always unknown conditions that will have to be solved, especially in the older cars,” he explains. “If you are trying to do an automobile on a budget, it could compromise the quality of the restoration – check out the different types of concours and level of competition you want to enter.”

Such long-lived experience also provides great insight into the mistakes people make, and how to avoid them.

“First, decide what type of automobile you want,” he says.

“Then there are people wanting a quote that is not possible – the shop can provide a range on the hours it will take to do the

BELOW Bob (left) talks judges Lawrence Stroll and Sir Jackie Stewart through one of his many projects.

project.” It’s also key to make sure you understand the level of competition you’re up against. “Research what type of shows you want to attend,” Bob advises. “The rules are different for each type of show, whether they are concours rules, club rules, celebrity judging, participant judging or people’s-choice judging.”

He also suggests taking a long look at who’ll be doing the work. “Choose someone who specialises in your type of automobiles – and once you’ve decided on a shop, ask for referrals,” he says. “Visit the shop, and see how organised it is; make sure they have the proper equipment to handle the job.”

However, the probing should go much further than that, Bob believes. “Have an interview with the shop owner – ask about their billing procedures, and see what projects they are working on,” he continues. “The shop should know the correct details of your automobile – do your research, and don’t go by what you see on TV or read on the internet.”

It’s clear that he enjoys his work, although the best bit is predictably towards the end of the process. “I love when the customer arrives to drive the car to sign off on it, or when I see the smile on the customer’s face when they win a show – it’s making dreams come true,” he says.

Having spent so long in the game, Bob has seen many changes in the industry, but the actual process of restoring cars has remained constant. “It hasn’t changed for around two decades,” he explains. “We’re still two years out in starting new projects.”

Nevertheless, there has been some movement in the types of cars that come to him for restoration. “There’s possibly a slight shift,” he says. “We are getting more requests for restoring mid-to-late 1960s models.”

There is a greater variation in the restoration goals, however: “Some owners want their car restored to the way it originally started life – they want to be able to show it at major concours. Some customers want the car to be able to qualify for rallies and racing events; we have to make special modifications on those types of automobiles. Some customers just want it to be user-friendly for driving.”

Looking ahead, Bob is positive about what’s in store. “The future of the concours scene and the restoration process will remain the same as long as there are people living out their dreams,” he says. “As Enzo Ferrari said: ‘If you can dream it, you can do it.’”

THE ORGA NISE R

“THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WAS OVERCOMING A natural laziness and attempting to spring back into action,” chuckles Lois Hunt, co-organiser of the Heveningham Concours in Suffolk, UK. Bringing the event back to life after a Covidenforced break was a demanding task – it faced two years on the sidelines, but returned in 2022 with a vibrant display of more than 50 examples of automotive exotica, from pre-war legends to the latest supercars.

The event is organised by Lois and her sons Max and Harry, and it runs alongside Heveningham Hall’s annual country fair as well as a concours event for aeroplanes. While the profits and proceeds from that go to East Anglian Air Ambulance, the concours funds an i-mobility scholarship dedicated to the future of sustainable mobility at the Royal College of Art. This year, the event also raised funds for the Halesworth Dementia Carers’ Fund and The Pear Tree Centre, which provide holistic support to people with life-changing illnesses or long-term health conditions, as well as their carers and family members. You can read more about this year’s event further on in The Concours Year.

“I was happy to get it all together without too many dramas,” Lois explains, although one of the concours’ showcase events provided her with great amusement: “I did enjoy being driven up Horsepower Hill by a lunatic,” she laughs.

Horsepower Hill uses the Hall’s grounds as a drag strip – this year’s winner was a Ferrari SF90 Spyder. However, Lois’s fourwheeled favourites lay elsewhere: “Getting the Group B rally cars all together was a highlight,” she says. These 1980s World Rally Championship monsters – such as the Audi Quattro E2, Lancia Delta S4 and 037, MG Metro 6R4 and Peugeot 205 T16 – were all storied competitors, but here crowds could enjoy them being exercised in the manner they were built for; the doughnut field reverberated to the sound of hyperhorsepower engines being let off the leash.

It wasn’t all about the past, though, with an appearance from the McMurtry Spéirling, an electric single-seat concept car that uses active downforce to pin it to the road. “That car is so clever; it had just been so successful at Goodwood,” Lois says. Indeed, Max Chilton broke the Festival of Speed hillclimb record just a matter of days before the Heveningham Concours, completing the 1.16-mile course in 39.08 seconds.

With Covid lockdowns trickling away, there has been a surge in interest in all sorts of automotive events – and the

BELOW Event organiser Lois says embracing change is a major key to future success.

Heveningham Concours appears to be no different in this regard. “One moment we are all in peril, the next we are able to socialise, making us delighted to grab any social event,” Lois explains. “This summer I think people were just pleased to be out and about once again.”

The post-Covid era has also made concours visitors much more open-minded: “I think people like to be challenged, and they are very open to seeing new ideas and embracing change – new innovations coming through are very exciting. But I think people like the rich tapestry of cars and planes from all eras, which brings the whole scene to life.”

That open-mindedness also applies to the way Lois believes concours events will change over the next few years. “I think it will probably be led by innovation. The other concours do everything so well and have particular judging criteria,” she says. “We have gone down a design route – hence our judges tend to be design based.” In 2022, Aston Martin and Jaguar stylist Ian Callum, along with Porsche Carrera GT and 911 GT1 designer Tony Hatter, were among the judges, and they were joined by model David Gandy, racer Marino Franchitti and ex-rally driver and M-Sport boss Malcolm Wilson.

Lois also believes variety is the key to broadening the concours world’s appeal: “We are very lucky to host the historic aeroplane concours and the country fair at the same time. The sight of planes landing and taking off throughout the day is a wonderful spectacle.”

In addition to four Supermarine Spitfires, ranging from a 1942 LF MkVb to a PR XI used for photo reconnaissance, the event hosted a range of aeroplanes from the 1930s to the 1950s, including a 1954 Cessna 0-1A Bird Dog that had called Japan, Korea and Hawaii home before being taken out of service in 2017, when it moved to the UK to be restored. The eventual winner of the Hanna Aviation Trophy was a 1934 de Havilland DH.83 Fox Moth Speed Model, which had survived two crashes before also being brought to the UK for restoration, in 1997.

However, for the cars, it’s all about keeping people grounded and interested in what makes automobiles so enchanting. Lois believes it’s important that visitors see exhibits in action, even if her experience up the hill left her in fear of her mortality. “Our Horsepower Hill is a great attraction,” she explains. “There is something very visceral about hearing some of these amazing engines roar into life.”

THE TRANSPO RTE R

“I WAS BORN INTO THE CAR WORLD – I GREW UP travelling the country with them, going to different car auctions and shows before I could walk on my own,” says Dean Wilson of Intercity Lines. “Combined with my father’s enthusiasm for cars and racing, it’s all I knew growing up.”

Dean now runs Intercity Lines, the company formed when his father David suddenly decided to stop hauling potatoes and switch to transporting cars in 1980. Intercity Lines has remained a family-operated firm – one that innovated with the use of hydraulic lift gates instead of ramps to load vehicles. “That, along with our customer service, led us to where we are 40 years later,” Dean says. “We continue to innovate through technology and building our own trailers in-house.”

The firm’s fleet of 53ft fully enclosed trailers have become the first choice for the likes of Gooding & Company, the Petersen Automotive Museum, Luftgekühlt, Gas Monkey Garage and the Ferrari Club of America. Personalities such as Jay Leno and Wayne Carini are regular patrons, too.

Even though the cycle of events means certain times of the year are busier than others, Intercity Lines has trucks hauling vehicles from New England to California on a weekly basis.

It also regularly runs from northwest US to the northeast, as well as to Florida and back.

Of course, concours events make up a huge part of the firm’s business, and the preparation is rather more than turning up at a workshop or garage with an empty trailer and a clipboard.

“As we approach the event, our team is constantly reviewing our bookings and hand-assigning drivers to the cars they will be transporting, to guarantee each driver has the properly planned load and experience to handle those vehicles perfectly,” Dean explains. He underlines the need to keep everybody involved in the process of moving cars up to date on what needs to be where, and when.

“We also communicate with all the different restoration shops and clients, to ensure they have ample time to finish and prep the cars while giving us enough time to meet the delivery deadline without fail. This constant communication and hands-on management of the load planning is why we can provide flawless on-time service with countless cars to each concours we service.”

For Dean, the year’s highlight has to be the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. “We handle more priceless cars to and

from that event each year than any other company,” he says.

“Those cars are works of art and pieces of history that cannot be replaced. Our team takes the utmost pride in transporting them for that reason, and that pride is why it’s my favourite. It’s where we prove ourselves year after year and, because of that, it’s where we tend to make the most memories.”

However, not all events are a joyful experience for Dean and his team. “I’m not a fan of events that are way off the beaten path, and we only have one or two cars going to,” he admits, although he adds that the location itself can cause problems.

“We typically have to charge the customer more than when going to higher-traffic areas. Events with storage arrangements for attendees can typically solve this problem by giving us the flexibility to bring that cost back down.”

On the subject of pricing, shipping costs have increased rapidly over the past year, which Dean puts down to high demand, fuel costs and inflation. “That’ll do it every time,” he muses, although it’s not been a problem with the international concours world, in his experience. “We are more US-focused, but the cars we transport overseas tend to ship regardless due to their high value and rarity.”

Transporting such precious cargo for so long means Dean’s got a handle on the most challenging cars – and it’s pre-war cars that furrow the brows most often. “Many original pre-war cars tend to be big, heavy and prone to mechanical issues due to their age, making them difficult to transport – never mind the nuances that come with starting and driving some of them,” he says. “You need the right drivers, or you risk damaging a piece of history.

Once you damage an original car like that, you can’t make it truly right again. You have to handle each one perfectly every time.”

As such, Dean has no tales of amusing mishaps, especially for concours cars. “From driving our trucks at 80,000lb, to their priceless cargo, it’s as serious as it gets,” he says. “That said, our drivers, clients and ourselves have a lot of fun working these events. From attending the concours to sharing stories at dinner each night, it brings us all together, making them special to us.”

On the subject of special cars, Dean has seen almost everything come and go through his team’s fleet of trucks, so picking a favourite is a tough one. “One of them would be the Porsche 718 RSK – I love the look and style of the car, along with its racing history,” he says. “I always stop in my tracks when I see one – it’s just perfect to me.”

The club with the winning edge

Checkered Flag 200 members have celebrated a successful year at Pebble Beach – and you can join them for next year THERE ARE MEMBERS’ CLUBS, and then there are members’ clubs – but very few are quite like the Checkered Flag 200.

Initiated by Bruce Meyer, founding chairman of the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, the original idea was to turn the collection of Robert E and Margie Petersen into a public, nonprofit museum – but bringing the idea to fruition would require considerable cash, so Bruce formulated the Checkered Flag 200.

Two hundred members would

donate a sum towards the running of the museum in return for membership. That was 28 years ago, and that 200 has grown to more than 700, and funded a significant proportion of the $125 million needed for the museum’s renovation and relaunch in 2015.

Its members are also increasingly successful on the concours scene – in 2022, no less than 40 per cent of the winners were Checkered Flag members. Congratulations to them all – and here’s to another stellar year in 2023 – but what does the

Checkered Flag membership mean?

First and foremost, the membership dues enable the museum to continue its work showcasing the world’s greatest cars and stories, helping to inspire the next generation of enthusiasts and collectors.

The membership also entitles participants to exclusive entry to events every month, including tours of private collection and discounts on other automotive events. This year, Checkered Flag 200 presented two panel discussions at the event:

The Beach Club hosted a talk with four current car designers on the future of design, and at Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, another talk saw legendary designer Gordon Murray talk to a select audience in association with Bonhams.

Monterey Car Week also saw a 23-strong car rally made up of Checkered Flag members make the pilgrimage from Los Angeles up the coast for the Motorworks event, stopping off at private collections along the way.

However, the big news for this

Celebrating the

Best Best of the

This 1956 Ferrari 250GT is special in many ways – and now it has earned the ultimate accolade

IMAGINE THE LEVEL OF WORK, WORRY AND attention to detail it takes for a car to receive the Best of Show award at a major concours. Now imagine competing against all those concours winners at once. That is exactly what The Peninsula Classics Best of the Best Award recognises – the top car picked from the top winners of the top concours worldwide.

For 2021, Best of the Best was presented to Brian Ross’s 1956 Ferrari 250GT Berlinetta Competizione, which became eligible for consideration after winning Best of Show at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. The award was handed over at Quail Lodge & Golf Club in Carmel Valley during Monterey Car Week, at a sumptuous dinner attended by the automotive world glitterati.

One of nine 250GT Berlinetta Competiziones constructed, the Ferrari has an illustrious motor sport CV, having competed in the Mille Miglia, several hillclimbs and the 1959 Tour de France. The car was modernised by Carrozzeria Scaglietti during its racing career, with a lowered nose, smaller grille, covered headlamps and rear spoiler. Years later, it was found to be fitted with the first prototype of Ferrari’s 12B V12 engine.

In 1968, the 250GT was sold to Claus Ahlefeld of Denmark. It remained in his private collection for 32 years, spending most of that time on display at the Egeskov Veteran Car Museum. Then, in 2000, Sam and Emily Mann acquired the car and extensively restored it to its original configuration. The body was repainted in its authentic silver-grey colour and the interior returned to blue leather. Six years later, the Ferrari was displayed for the first time, and awarded Platinum honours as well as the Gran Turismo Cup for Best of Show GT at the Cavallino Classic.

Its current owner purchased the car in 2016, and it was then shipped to Bacchelli & Villa in Italy for further restoration

work. After certification by Ferrari Classiche, the 250GT obtained the coveted Red Book before winning Villa d’Este Best of Show. Such rarity, combined with the car’s racing pedigree and meticulous restoration, meant it also scooped The Peninsula Classics 2021 Best of the Best Award.

Also competing for the award this year was a distinguished group of finalists, including a 1957 Ferrari 250GT Berlinetta Tour de France, 1974 Lancia Stratos HF Stradale and three variants of the 1938 Mercedes-Benz 540K. Other nominees were a 1926 Hispano-Suiza H6B Cabriolet and 1934 Avions Voisin Type C27 Aerosport Coupé. They all received the highest awards from the most esteemed concours of 2021, including Pebble Beach, The Amelia, The Quail, Salon Privé, Cavallino Classic, Goodwood Cartier Style et Luxe, Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille and the Concours of Elegance Hampton Court Palace.

Among the judges assigned to the seemingly impossible task of picking the world’s top car were legendary auto designer Fabio Filippini, Genesis chief creative officer Luc Donckerwolke, Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, ex-General Motors chief designer and Porsche senior designer Ken Okuyama, fashion designer Ralph Lauren, Ford Motor Company director Henry Ford III, former Rolls-Royce design director Ian Cameron, comedian and television host Jay Leno, and others.

“With such an illustrious selection of finalists this year, the judging process was especially challenging,” said the Hon. Sir Michael Kadoorie. “Our group of eight classics represents the pinnacle of automotive craftsmanship, artistry and engineering.

All of them are excellent representatives of automotive history, but one rose to the top to receive our highest honour and recognition with The Peninsula Classics 2021 Best of the Best Award.”

CAVALLINO ROUNDED OUT AN exceptional 30th anniversary year with its first Cavallino Classic Middle East, the first-ever international event devoted to classic Ferraris held in a Gulf state.

As a prologue, a selection of the cars taking part were exhibited at the Dubai Opera, which formed part of the Motor Valley @ Expo Dubai exhibition. The concours itself was dominated by the success of a 1953 250 Europa bodied by Vignale. The car (chassis no. 0295) was the first road Ferrari to be equipped with the 250GT’s pivotal 3.0-litre Colombo V12. Officially unveiled at the 1953 Paris Motor Show, it was an immediate hit thanks to its refined mechanicals and Giovanni Michelotti-penned lines. Only one other 250 Europa, of the 21 built,

had the same styling. This car was soon sold to the US, where it’s remained ever since. A few years ago, it was restored to a very high standard by its current owner.

High-quality iconic supercars from 1984-2004 were also represented, with one specimen per model: a 288GTO from 1984 (chassis no. 53297); an F40 from 1988 (chassis 84140); an F50 from 1995 (chassis 103382); and an Enzo from 2003 (chassis 131886). The latter was the only model accepted in spite of being produced after the cut-off date of December 31, 1999.

The second day of the concours saw the public take centre stage. Thus the winner of the Ferraristi Award was the 1953 250 Europa Coupé that had also taken home the main prize on day one.

Europa is one of only two models with this Michelotti styling ever built.

THE 31ST PALM BEACH CAVALLINO Classic saw a wide spread of Maranello mastery on the lawns of The Breakers in Florida. The festivities began on the Thursday, with a track day at The Concours Club that marked 30 years of the Ferrari Challenge. This was followed by the Tour d’Eleganza, which saw participants drive from Deerfield Beach to Palm Beach along the scenic route A1A. Saturday’s Concorso d’Eleganza was a delight, with 150 cars turning out to celebrate 75 years of Ferrari. Indeed, a model from each year from 1947 to 2021 was in attendance, plus several 2022 cars. A 1966 365P Speciale took home Overall Outstanding Ferrari Granturismo and The Ferrari People’s Choice Award.

Based on the revised 365/P2 racing chassis, the ‘Tre Posti’ is the first of only two produced, and it would end up with US Ferrari importer Luigi Chinetti, with whom it remained for 48 years. It was sold to its current keeper at just 8000km, and after refreshment it won its class and was also one of the four Best of Show nominees at Pebble Beach in 2021.

The Overall Outstanding Ferrari Competition award went to the 1964 250GTO (no. 5573) driven by Surtees, Bandini, Scarfiotti and Rodriguez. It was also raced by 1961 World Champion Hill, 1964 Le Mans winner Guichet and future Ferrari Formula 1 team member Parkes. It is the second GTO made with the 1964 body design. The Palm Beach 2022 Chairman’s Award went to a 1993 Ferrari F40 LM. One of a series of around ten, this car was originally delivered to the US and never raced.

THE DAWN OF A NEW YEAR brought a new type of concours – the Motorcar Cavalcade, a brand-new event for 2022. Proceedings began on Saturday with the Miami Speed and Style Rally, on which concours entrants toured local Miami landmarks.

The concours itself took place on the Sunday, with more than 90 cars displayed on the show field. Rather than marque, model or era-specific classes, the event placed cars from different generations and eras up against each other in specific categories. These were Sound, Finishes, Cockpit, Dashboard, Lights, Glass, Doors, Mirrors, Paint, Power and Utility. The aim was to break down barriers, allowing different groups of automobile people to mix with each other and learn new things.

The Best in Show award was split into two: the modern era was represented by Ariane Dart’s Pagani Huayra Roadster BC, while the classic era award went to Richard Gorman’s 1933 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental, which was bodied by Gurney Nutting. Away from the cars, visitors enjoyed top-class music, as well as exquisite culinary and mixology opportunities via dedicated pavilions in a garden party-inspired setting.

“The Motorcar Cavalcade is a celebration of automobiles and the people who love them, uniting the world of cars, cuisine and lifestyle,” said Jason Wenig, Cavalcade co-executive director.

“We’re proud to partner with the Warren Henry Auto Group as we create an extraordinary event appealing to both car lovers and those who appreciate luxury and elegance.”

CONC O U R S I N T HE HI LL S

Location Fountain Park, Fountain Hills, Arizona, US Organisers Peter Volny, Larry Smith and Jim Maetzold Chairman Peter Volny Head judge Harley Cluxton III Attendance figures Vehicles: 1200; Spectators: 40,000-plus Honourees Arie Luyendyk, Derek Daly, Lyn St James, Harley Cluxton Marques celebrated Limited-Edition Exotics Main sponsor Gila River Resorts and Casinos Charity Phoenix Children’s Hospital Next year February 4, 2023 Website concoursinthehills.org Closest airports Phoenix and Scottsdale

AFTER A ONE-YEAR COVID HIATUS in 2021, Concours in the Hills really roared back in 2022 to break all records for the eighth year in succession. Limited only by the size of the gently rolling slopes and green grass of the 35-acre Fountain Park, encircling the lake and 560-foot fountain in Fountain Hills, the show proudly displayed in the region of 1200 cars. An estimated 40,000 people enjoyed Arizona’s warm and sunny weather, and raised more than $460,000 for Phoenix Children’s Hospital. The magnitude of the show is a testament to the enormity and diversity of the state’s car scene.

The show is arranged by sections for Domestic, European, Asian, Race Cars, Motorcycles, Military and Off-Road vehicles. A new section for this year was

Limited-Edition Exotics, which included a McLaren F1, Hennessey Venom F5, LaFerrari, McLaren Elva, Aston Martin One-77 and Ferrari 500 Superfast.

The Race Car section featured around 40 cars from Indy, Le Mans, CanAm and other series. One car was Mario Andretti’s Lotus 38, which revolutionised IndyCar racing by moving from a front- to rearengined layout. Others included a Ford GT40 Mk4, McLaren Mk8E, Toyota GTP, Lola T70 and T160, Genie Mk10, Surtees TS8, Maserati Birdcage plus Mirages M1 and M12. A special interactive feature was the Discount Tire Pit Stop Competition, where the public could test their skill at a NASCAR-style timed wheel change.

The ninth annual show is scheduled for Saturday February 4, 2023.

Arizona’s Concours in the Hills welcomes classic and collector cars of every kind.

THE INTERMARQUE CONCOURS had a wonderful 2021 event, yet Covid finally caught up with the organisers in 2022. Restrictions meant the concours has had to be postponed until next year, but it promises to be an excellent event.

In a normal year, 80 clubs descend on Ellerslie Racecourse, and awards are given out individually or as part of teams. In 2021 the Porsche Car Club won the Team shield, while Allan Shanahan’s Porsche 356A Speedster was awarded Best in Show.

While visitors can expect automotive glitterati, the show also boasts the 50-5050 starter concours for younger people who haven’t done a costly restoration.

Both the entrant and the car must be younger than 50 years of age, and the total cost must be less than NZ$50,000.

The underside isn’t judged, there’s less of an emphasis on originality and club membership isn’t a pre-requisite; 2021’s winner was Tim Wood’s Datsun 1200 SS. Last year’s Survivor Class was won by Murray Biddick’s Jaguar E-type S3, and Penny Webster’s Mercedes-Benz 230SL was the victor in the Masters Class.

New features planned for 2022, but which will now make their mark in 2023, include hot rods, unrestored cars and partial builds. With plenty to enjoy, the Intermarque Concours promises to be better than ever upon its return.

Cars from more than 80 clubs attend the Intermarque Concours in New Zealand.

The 2022 festivities started with a VIP welcome reception at The Boca Raton on the Friday.

NASCAR and Daytona 500 star Gordon was among the honourees.

Sunday’s concours witnessed around 200 vehicles on the show field, with Chrysler and Imperial, tuned cars and Corvette coupes all receiving their own classes. It was an eclectic line-up that spanned the history of motoring, whether on two wheels or four.

This year’s Best of Show in the automobile category went to the 1948 Daimler D-36 ‘Green Goddess’ Drophead Coupé owned by Mark Hyman, while the motorcycle Best of Show was awarded to a 1930 Indian 402 belonging to James Sabino.

WITH TORRENTIAL RAIN AND floods battering Sydney, it looked as if the fourth Sydney Harbour Concours d’Elegance might not happen. However, a last-minute change of venue to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Hyde Park Barracks saw the event go ahead with only minor rain clusters.

A welcome drink on Thursday night was followed by three days of automotive excellence. There seemed to be no dampening of the spirits of the guests as they happily viewed the marvellous array of cars – even if they were holding a glass of Pommery Champagne in one hand and an umbrella in the other.

The pre-war class – entitled Puttin’ On The Ritz and consisting of a Vauxhall 30/98, Bentley 3 Litre Speed Model, Rolls-Royce New Phantom, Rolls-Royce

20/25 HP and Alfa Romeo 6C 2300MM – was one of the most hotly contested.

Elsewhere, a brace of Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadsters and a Gullwing, Aston Martin DB5 and DB6, the Ferrari 275GTB/4 originally owned by jazz musician Miles Davis, and the incredible 1904 Napier L48 ‘Samson’ Edwardian giant were among the 37 selected entries.

The Prix d’Honneur for Best in Show went to that 1924 30/98 Chassis no.

OE1078. The only surviving Vauxhall factory competition car of this period, it was presented by the marque to recordbreaking motorist Boyd Edkins in ’24 for his special service. Sporting a Wensum boat-tail body and uniquely designed for competition, it has been in the current owner’s possession for two decades.

This was its first concours entry.

Hard-standing of Hyde Park Barracks provided the perfect floodproof venue.

THE ORGANISERS BEHIND THE well established Salon Privé launched a new event in the heart of London with an innovative twist: all of the cars entered into the concours at Royal Hospital Chelsea were for sale.

A 1954 OSCA MT4, chassis no. 1143, was entered by Classic Motor Hub, and duly took top honour. Built for racing driver Francesco Giardini, its first competition outing was in that year’s Coppa della Toscana, in which it won its class. At the Le Mans 24 Hours, Giardini and co-driver Jacques Péron were leading their class when the former crashed out with two hours left.

Acquired by Attilio Brandi ahead of the 1955 season, the OSCA won its class on the Giro di Sicilia and finished second

in the Gran Premio Mugello and Gran Premio Pergusa. In 1956, driving solo in fierce conditions, he won the Mille Miglia’s 1100cc Sports Car class.

The Royal Hospital’s residents, the Chelsea Pensioners – retired members of the British Army – selected a 1954 AustinHealey 100 entered by Warren Kennedy Classic Restorations. Having been in storage in California since 1963, the Spruce Green car has been fully restored.

People’s Choice was a 2004 Ferrari Enzo, one of only 31 UK-allocated cars, entered by Furlonger Specialist Cars. It had a unique interior with ‘Enzo Ferrari’ stitched into the seats and a diamondquilted rear panel inspired by the 250GTO. It has also been signed by key figures in the 2004 Ferrari Formula 1 team.

All of the cars entered into the concours at Royal Hospital Chelsea were for sale.

AFTER A THREE-YEAR DELAY DUE to Covid, the La Jolla Concours returned better than ever with a weekend of fine motoring marvels and entertainment. It all kicked off on Friday, with a Ferrarithemed party presented by Pacific Sotheby’s with live music, fine dining, cocktails and an array of Maranello machines lining up along Prospect Street.

On Saturday, the La Jolla Tour d’Elegance took in San Diego landmarks, scenic photo opportunities and rare glimpses of private collections, with lunch at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club overlooking the Pacific. Later that night, the Le Cabaret du Concours Soiree, held in association with Aston Martin, offered creative cocktails, fine food and live entertainment.

However, Sunday’s La Jolla Concours was the jewel of the weekend, showing more than 150 vehicles in 15 classes, with everything from muscle cars to vintage European coachbuilts lining up on the cliffs of La Jolla. While it was hard to look away from the automotive treats, a vintage air display by Icon Aircraft was the cherry on the cake.

Bugattis and the Mercedes-Benz 300SL were the special categories, and the winner came from the former – a 1931 Type 51 Coupé owned by the Nethercutt Collection. All net proceeds raised at the event befitted the non-profit La Jolla Historical Society, which collects, preserves and presents the heritage of the community for the educational benefit of current and future citizens and visitors.

A pandemicdelayed La Jolla returned with a bang for 2022.

ITALY’S CONCORSO D’ELEGANZA Villa d’Este returned to its traditional May slot for 2022, with 51 of the world’s most exclusive vehicles on display in unseasonably summer-like weather.

Competition for class victories was equally hot, with Art Deco design, supercharged Mercedes-Benzes, 75 years of Ferrari, 50 years of BMW M cars and early 300k/ph supercars featured.

There was also a class for elegant GTs celebrating 150 seasons at the Villa d’Este hotel, plus a Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday class for race-bred road cars.

However, the winner was one of four Bugatti Type 57S convertibles bodied by Vanvooren, which also scooped the top honour in the Golden Age of Elegance: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design

class. The Type 57S has lived an interesting life; one of the previous ten owners, a General Motors vice president, swapped the Bugatti inline-eight engine for a Buick V8 unit for test purposes.

Miraculously, four decades after the car was separated from its powerplant, an internet search turned up the missing motor, and the S was made whole again.

The event also celebrated brand-new concepts and supercars, with the public vote declaring the Bugatti Bolide as the class winner. And 50 years of BMW M was marked with several takes on the M1 supercar, from the original road and race machines to more recent Hommage models. Rolls-Royce also revealed the second of three Boat Tail models at the three-day event.

Grand Hotel Villa d’Este offers a stunning vista of Italy’s Lake Como.

AFTER A TWO-YEAR HIATUS, THE Valletta Concours d’Elegance (VCE) returned in 2022 bigger and better than ever. Held in the main square of Malta’s stunning baroque capital, the fourth edition saw a record audience, with the calibre of entrants’ vehicles reaching an exceptionally high standard.

The enormous 1930 Cadillac V16 AllWeather Phaeton 4380 entered by Hans Emeren – a Swede living on Gozo, who has spent more than five years restoring this American giant in his own garage on the Maltese island – took Best of Show.

The 2022 VCE featured ten distinct classes, with an additional six special awards also on offer. Anthony Camilleri won Best Jaguar E-type with his 1963 Series 1 3.8 Coupé, while Best Restored Car was Chris Cachia’s 1957 Jaguar

XK150. Best Historic Award was fittingly taken by Benjamin Borg’s 1967 Humber Super Snipe Limousine, which has spent all its life as the official car of Sir Maurice Dorman, the last British Governor of Malta before Independence in 1964.

Meanwhile, the Spirit of Malta was won by local collector David Arrigo’s rare Fiat 500 Giardiniera-based Ghia Jolly beach car, and the Enemed Award was taken by Hermann Cuschieri’s 1955 Jaguar XK120.

Noel and Mandy Attard’s outfits to match their 1966 Jaguar E-type Series 1 FHC 4.2 won them the Period Clothing Award.

A panel of 15 internationally renowned judges included designers Peter Stevens, Louis de Fabribeckers and Michael Robinson. They came from as far afield as the UK, Italy, US and New Zealand, and were led by Jeremy Jackson-Sytner.

Blue skies and a baroque backdrop bestow VCE with a unique character.

AFTER A HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL inaugural Modena show, Canossa returned to Italy’s Motor City for the Cavallino Classic Modena.

In the grounds of chef Massimo Bottura’s Casa Maria Luigia, 31 classic Ferraris sparkled in the springtime sun.

Later, a parade escorted by police outriders made its way to the city centre.

The route passed many pivotal places that saw a young Enzo discover and develop his passion for cars, and take his first steps with his eponymous company.

This year’s charity focus was towards a donation to help Ukrainian refugee families living in Emilia-Romagna, and particularly for organisations offering psychological support for children.

During the awards ceremony, a number of special items were auctioned in aid of the same cause. These included a very rare copy of the October 1978 issue of Cavallino magazine (the first), and a copy of the Cavallino Classic Modena 2022 poster featuring Enzo Naso’s drawings of all the cars present, which was signed by the owners and by Massimo Bottura.

Best of Show in the Competition class went to a 1959 250GT Interim (no. 1461 GT). One of the seven 250 Interims produced, it came fourth overall and second in class at the Le Mans 24 Hours.

It appeared fresh from a total restoration that returned it to Le Mans spec.

Best of Show in the GT class went to a 1960 250GT Berlinetta Passo Corto (chassis 1953 GT). First sold to Dr Cesare Marchi of Florence, it was specified with an all-aluminium body as seen on the racing version, but it was never used on track. Indeed, Marchi requested the chrome bumpers and road-spec engine.

THE PICTURESQUE GREENWICH Harbor saw more than 8000 enthusiasts feast their eyes on automotive excellence as part of a weekend of petrol-head delights. Friday evening featured the Hagerty Drivers Foundation’s unveiling of the 31st vehicle inducted into the National Historic Vehicle Register. The Fabulous Hudson Hornet – a 1952 model, no. 7B-185596, as raced by Herb Thomas – was displayed throughout the weekend.

Saturday’s Cars and Community, presented by Griot’s Garage, featured RADwood and Concours d’Lemons displays, and Sunday’s concours didn’t disappoint. Over 18 classes, 140 cars were judged by 57 of the world’s leading experts, with a Vignale-bodied Packard Convertible Victoria Eight taking home

Best in Show. Carrozzeria Vignale was celebrated with two classes, one for Ferrari (won by a 212 Export) and a general class won by a Cunningham C3.

A different C3 took honours in the Powered by America class, beating off the likes of Iso Grifos and GordonKeebles in this battle of European design flair sporting mighty US engines.

Those same V8s could be found in the Muscle/Performance class and the Brock Yates Memorial special class, with a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T winning the former and a 1970 Plymouth Cuda taking the latter. British treats came in the form of the Alvis class, won by a TA14, and the Aston Martin DB4C that was victorious in the Post-War English class – this year dedicated to Aston’s DB models.

Stunning entries were seen by more than 8000 automotive enthusiasts.

THE 44TH CINCINNATI CONCOURS brought together European and American takes on luxury style with a weekend of top-class entertainment.

Saturday saw a two-hour tour around the Ohio countryside, before meeting up for a party at Executive Jet Management’s hangar at Lunken Airport, which was sponsored by Porsche of the Village.

Sunday was the big day, with the concours seeing cars displayed in the formal gardens of historic Ault Park. A classic pavilion overlooking the show field hosted an automotive art show, brunch and a craft beer garden.

As befits the main theme of Euro Luxe vs American Luxury, a glittering display of automotive excess provided the bulk of the 250 cars on display. On the day it was the Europeans that took overall Best of Show victory, with the Euro Luxe Pre-War class-winning 1936 Horch 853A Special Roadster belonging to the Jepson family a deserved winner.

Another European took home the Best of Show Esprit de Sport title for racing cars; fittingly in the 75th anniversary of the marque, The Auto Place’s 1958 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa swept to victory. The People’s Choice award, however, blended American V8 might with home-grown flair, with victory going to a 1967 Bizzarrini P538 Spyder owned by Van Horneff.

All proceeds from the Cincinnati Concours d’Elegance benefitted The Arthritis Foundation, with a special focus on Juvenile Arthritis.

BEST IN SHOW 1950 Ferrari 166MM (Clive Beecham).

Location Savile Row, London, UK Organiser Hothouse Media Chairman Geoff Love Judging process Westminster City Lions/ Hagerty Youth Judges Attendance figures 6000 Main sponsors RM Sotheby’s, Hagerty, FOPE, Chopard, Magneto, Pollen Estate Next year May 24-25, 2023 Website concoursonsavilerow.com Closest airports Heathrow, London City

THE INAUGURAL CONCOURS ON Savile Row got underway in glorious sunshine on London’s famous tailoring street. The area was transformed into a free-to-attend automotive nirvana, with 35 of the world’s finest collector cars perfectly presented on red carpet.

This event was arranged in partnership with Hothouse Media, creator of Magneto magazine, and The Pollen Estate, historic owner of much of Savile Row. The worlds of bespoke cars and clothing were further entwined by the pairing of tailors with auto manufacturers and sponsors. Craft demonstrations by tailors and the Association of Heritage Engineers, wine and whisky tastings, and forums were held within the shops, with music and expert talks on the main stage.

An eclectic vehicle array ranged from legendary pre-war models such as the 1934 Barnato-Hassan Bentley through to cutting-edge supercars like the 3D-printed Czinger 21C and the McLaren Artura, both making their UK debuts at the event.

A Ferrari 166MM Barchetta built for Gianni Agnelli won Best in Show.

Number 24 of 25 built, it features unique paint, dashboard and teardrop taillights.

Second place went to Cici Muldoon’s Ferrari 250GT PF Coupé, while third place was awarded to Simon Taylor’s Bentley 41/4 Litre Sedanca Coupé.

The winners were chosen by Hagerty Youth Judges – in this case, teenagers from the Westminster City Lions, an organisation that helps introduce young people to possible career opportunities.

Judging was by groups of teenagers from Westminster City Lions, guided by Hagerty experts.

THE INAUGURAL INTERCLASSICS Days of Elegance, held at the Château St Gerlach estate, boasted beautiful design and feats of engineering to provide a glorious celebration of motoring. The event gave show-goers the chance to test their purse strings’ reserve with tempting cars both classic and brand new, while Saturday’s Rally of Elegance provided a chance to see automotive art in motion.

A 1935 Lancia Astura Roadster stood out among exalted company; fresh from a seven-year restoration, it was unanimously praised and suitably rewarded with Best of Show. Elsewhere, the Louwman Museum’s MercedesBenz 500K Spezial Roadster took home the When Coachwork Becomes Art award, while another Mercedes-Benz, a 300S, beat off stiff competition from

English pre-war cars to presented with the Elegant Tourers class prize.

The 44th Porsche ever built, a 356 Gmünd (the so-called Knickscheibe, in reference to the bar in the windscreen) won in the Gentleman’s Thoroughbreds class. And the Racing Legends category was taken by a 1954 Ferrari 500 Mondial, while another Maranello machine was the victor in Future Classics – a singleowner-from-new 1989 F40.

All the competition participants were allowed to cast their votes for the Owners’ Choice prize, which was won by an Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Villa d’Este. The Honorary Judge Award, chosen by former Schlumpf Museum curator Richard Keller and restoration expert Gundula Tutt, went to a Pegaso Z-102 GT Berlinetta Enasa.

THE CONCOURS D’ELÉGANCE Suisse returned to Château de Coppet for the sixth edition of this elegant affair.

Lake Geneva shimmered in the 36ºC heat, mirroring the gleam from the cars on display as part of a weekend of events.

Saturday saw the Tour d’Elégance, which allowed owners to stretch their cars’ legs in the scenic Swiss countryside.

Sunday was all about the concours, with particular attention paid to the Jaguar E-type’s 61st anniversary and AvionsVoisin’s 103rd, making up for lost time after the pandemic scuttled normal concours plans over the past few years.

Philip and Julie Porter’s 1960 Jaguar won the E-type class; 9600 HP is the only remaining prototype of the breed, and thus the oldest example in the world.

The owner has authored an extensive book on the car’s history.

Swiss coachbuilders were celebrated with a class dedicated to their unique take on some of the world’s most desirable chassis. Victory went to a Touring-Graberbodied Alfa Romeo 6C 2500. It wasn’t just elegant Europeans that got a chance to shine – American muscle was celebrated, too, with wins in two classes. A 1968 Dodge Charger R/T won the America’s Sixties class, while the Rebel’s Class was won by a 1958 Chevrolet Impala custom.

Best of Show and Best of Sound were split between Europe and the US. The latter accolade went to the aural delights of a 1957 Cadillac Coupe de Ville, while the former was a 1952 Delahaye 135 MS bodied by Faget-Varnet.

FATHER’S DAY ON RODEO DRIVE means one thing – a varied selection of cars from across the world, served up for all on one of the most prestigious luxury fashion streets in the world.

The concours celebrated its 27th year, with cars ranging from a 1912 Ford Model T Roadster Pick-up to a 2022 Ford GT, with plenty of diversity in between, such as a 2008 Koenigsegg CX and a 1970 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R. The concours was free to attend, and was supported by O’Gara Coach, Auto Vault Storage, Geary’s, Two Rodeo Drive, Ferrari of Beverly Hills, Mercedes-Benz of Beverly Hills, RM Sotheby’s and Pirelli.

Rolls-Royce was this year’s honoured marque, and a 1924 Silver Ghost Pall Mall Tourer won the Icon Award:

Timeless Classic. However, Italy took Best in Show, with a 1955 Ferrari 250 Europa GT taking top honours.

“Who knew almost 30 years ago when we started the Rodeo Drive Concours as a fundraiser to restore the Beverly Hills Fire Department’s first fire truck, where it’d take us today… Beverly Hills’ largest single-day event, with almost 50,000 attendees,” said organiser Bruce Meyer.

“It is a textbook example of the merchants, residents and local City government working together in such a harmonious, colourful and positive way.

The show and celebration of the finest cars in the world literally has something for everyone – a wide range of automotive style and ownership all come together in a magical, loving community event.”

Style, elegance and iconic cars came together on this prestigious Beverly Hills street.

THE CARTIER STYLE ET LUXE lived up to its billing as a Goodwood Festival of Speed must-see, just as it has done for the past 27 years. The judging panel comprised 13 people from the art, design, sport and media worlds, including ex-Olympic cyclist Sir Chris Hoy and top architect Sir Norman Foster.

The concours saw Ferrari, Lancia and the Austin 7 take a starring role, although the McLaren F1’s 30th anniversary served up several examples of both road and racing versions. In the end, the bewinged beauty of Tom Smith’s ‘High Downforce’ version took class honours.

At the other end of the scale, the 100th year of the Austin 7 ‘people’s car’ was marked with a wide variety of variants.

Mud, Sweat and Gears celebrated

Lancia’s fine heritage, with examples of the Stratos, 037 and Fulvia on display – in the end, it was the very final special edition of the Delta HF Integrale Evo 2 that took honours. The early days of mid-engined sports cars were celebrated in the Centre-Piece class, with examples of the De Tomaso Vallelunga, Ferrari 206 Dino and Lotus Europa battling with the eventual victor, a 1964 René Bonnet Djet.

The concours marked Ferrari’s 75th year with two classes. Hypercar entrants included an F50, 288GTO and LaFerrari, but Henry Pearman’s F40 took top honours. In the (Prancing) Horse class, front-engined V12s were celebrated with the likes of the 365GTB/4 and 250GT California, although a 1965 275GTB/4 won both the class and Best of Show.

The extensive lawns of grand Goodwood House provided the stage for the Cartier Style et Luxe.

THE FIFTH RUNNING OF THE Philadelphia Concours celebrated snakes – Vipers and Cobras took centre stage.

Shelby legend Peter Brock was in attendance, along with Chuck Cantwell, Shelby Mustang Trans Am team engineer, and Super Bowl-winning NFL Hall of Famer Coach Dick Vermeil. They took part in a panel discussion led by historian Harry Hurst at the Friday-night gala.

Cantwell and Brock were joined for another discussion on Saturday by Roy Sjoberg, the father of the Dodge Viper, just before a live auction of Cobra memorabilia and money-can’tbuy-experiences, all in aid of Cool Cars For Kids. Founded in 2016, Cool Cars for Kids is a non-profit organisation based in Philadelphia that exists to provide

help and hope to children with rare diagnoses and their families.

As for the show itself, visitors had a chance to win a prize by entering their ride into the Corral section. This year’s overall Corral winner was Dan Sarandrea’s 1986 Fiat X1/9 Bertone.

Meanwhile, the concours was tightly contested across all classes, and this year a special new award was inaugurated – the Dr Fred Simeone Heart of a Champion Award for most original racing car. It was named in honour of the late Dr Simeone, who passed away on June 11, 2022, and presented to Don and Diane Meluzio for their 1961 Fiat Abarth Bialbero 1000 GT. Best in Show went to a 1965 Shelby Cobra 289 Roadster owned by Lee and Felicia Cross.

TO MARK 66 YEARS IN OPERATION, the Hillsborough Concours celebrated Route 66 with special dedicated classes on the Crystal Spring Golf Course in Burlingame, California. The Start Your Engines VIP party kicked off a weekend of festivities that included the Tour d’Elegance driving through the beautiful California countryside, before Sunday’s concours on the golf course’s 18th hole.

This year, Shelby’s 60th and Ferrari’s 75th anniversaries brought out some spectacular road art, but it was a Chrysler that took Best in Show plus two other awards. Larry Nannini’s very rare 1932 Imperial CL, which had undergone a two-year restoration, took home a class victory, the Honorary Judges’ Trophy plus Best in Show.

“The concours showcased perhaps the most eclectic mix of cars that we have ever offered,” said chairman Glen Egan.

“It combined truly exceptional and distinctive design with precedent-setting engineering. The Imperial CL is a perfect example of those characteristics, and a great selection for our coveted honour.”

Over 200 cars lined up, spread across the motoring spectrum from vintage racers to muscle cars, and everything in between. One highlight was the 1896 Riker Electric Roadster, which won the Chairman’s Award, while the car owners fell in love with the 1968 Citroën DS19 Decopatable. The people’s vote, meanwhile, went to Dana Miller’s 1960 Harley-Davidson Super 10, which also won the Vintage Motorcycles class.

THE LONDON CONCOURS SAW exquisite motoring jewels take centre stage in the palatial grounds of the City’s Honourable Artillery Company, with a glorious selection of very special cars from across the spectrum of motoring.

Best in Show went to a Toyota 2000GT, which originally called Mozambique home before coming to Europe in the 1970s. This car also won the hotly contested Japanese Jewels category.

The Chairman’s Award went to a oneof-56 1962 Ferrari 250GT California SWB, which also won the Italian Spiders category. The Fins and Chrome class was taken by a 1958 Cadillac Sedan de Ville fresh from a multi-year, body-off restoration, while a 1938 Jaguar SS100 with Peter Moss hillclimbing history in Australia and 1949 Australian GP

experience with Keith Thallon won the Great British History class. A 300SL Gullwing that still had its original fitted luggage and belly pans was the victor in the Great Marques: Mercedes-Benz class, and a 2012 Koenigsegg Agera S with carbonfibre kit and engine upgrades took home the Pursuit of Speed class victory.

Outside of the main concours, there were plenty of other astonishing cars on display. One special feature celebrated the best Coachbuilt and Concepts, including the one-off Jaguar XK180 and the wild Mercedes F2000 Imagination with joystick controls.

The Collector, which each year focuses on one person’s collection, showcased the motors of Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia, including his Jaguar E-type, Porsche 356 and Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona.

THE HEVENINGHAM CONCOURS returned for its fifth edition after several years of Covid-enforced sabbatical, and it came back in excellent style.

Fifty vintage and classic stars, plus competition and modern supercars, graced Heveningham Hall’s rear lawn as part of the wider annual Country Fair, which attracts more than 20,000 people.

Concours partners included MercedesBenz, Laurent-Perrier, BMW, Gusbourne, Wilderness Reserve, Favourbrook and the Royal College of Art. All proceeds and profits go to charity including the East Anglian Air Ambulance, and the concours funds an ‘i-mobility’ RCA scholarship.

On the Friday prior to the concours, entrants could enjoy a tour of Suffolk driving roads, with a top-secret dining

location. Among the attractions was a line-up of Group B rallying monsters such as a Lancia Delta S4, Audi Quattro S1 E2 and MG Metro 6R4, which performed doughnuts in a nearby field.

Concours judges included chairman Max Hunt, designer Ian Callum, former rally driver and M-Sport boss Malcolm Wilson, model and Jaguar enthusiast David Gandy, Porsche 993 designer Tony Hatter and racer Marino Franchitti.

They awarded top prize in the Pre-War category to a 1933 MG K3 Magnette. PostWar winner was a 1963 Jaguar E-type Lightweight, and the Supercar victor was a 2021 Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+.

The winning car in the drag race up the main estate drive – dubbed Horsepower Hill – was a Ferrari SF90 Spider.

Heveningham Hall’s manicured terraces were put to great use as a stage for these stunning classics.

SUN, SEA AND SCINTILLATING automotive shapes – the Concorso d’Eleganza Poltu Quatu Classic never disappoints, with a riveting array of cars heading to Sardinia. It’s proven so popular that this year, in its seventh edition, an extra day was added on the Thursday.

Given the event’s proximity to Sardinia’s gorgeous coastline, the Sex on the Beach class celebrated beach cars, with the winner being Sherwood Garage’s Fiat Bruseghini 750 Joker.

Fewer than 20 were ever built.

Sardinia is also well known for rallying, which was reflected in the Best of Show – the Lancia Rally 037 of Érik Comas.

Chassis 133 competed in Sardinia 40 years ago, and notched up a third place on the Tour De France Automobile later

that year, with Bernard Darniche and Alain Mahé behind the wheel.

Keeping to the theme, an ex-Works Toyota Celica GT Four won the Rally Queen title for ex-World Rally Championship cars, while a 2019 Peking to Paris Ferrari 308GT4 scooped the Pirelli Rally Queen Award. The hotly contested La Dolce Vita went to the Lancia Aurelia B24, which starred in cult movie Il Sorpasso, directed by Dino Risi and starring Vittorio Gassman, Catherine Spaak and Jean-Louis Trintignant.

Ferraris also played a huge part, with an F40 winning Made in Italy, and US collector Adrian Labi’s 250 Tour De France winning the Ferrarissima 75 class.

A 212 Vignale entered by the Metropole Museum scooped the Mauto award.

Such is the allure of sun, sea and scintillating automotive shapes, a fourth event day was added for 2022.

Concours d’Elegance at Copshaholm

CONCOUR S D’ELEGANCE AT C O PS HA HO L M

Location Copshaholm Mansion, South Bend, Indiana, US Organiser Studebaker National Museum Chairman Patrick Slebonick Head judge Matthew Short Judging process French traditional Attendance figures 1691 Marques celebrated Chrysler-branded automobiles from 1924-1942 Main sponsors JBS Collection & LaVine Restorations, Inc Next year July 8, 2023 Website concoursatcopshaholm.org Closest airport South Bend International

THE 2022 CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE at Copshaholm presented wonderful examples of US automotive art in the plush grounds of South Bend’s Copshaholm Mansion. Competition was tight, with entries from over 13 states.

The weekend opened with a Collector’s Celebration on the Friday night, before Saturday’s concours. While the cars were the main draw, there were plenty of other activities to savour, such as the Studebaker Styling Studio. Here, expert industrial designers worked with showgoers to design a ‘new’ 1936 Studebaker after studying the Commander model.

Hagerty’s Junior Judging Program saw six- to 14-year-olds run the rule over cars in the show; they declared Doug and Katie Hodak’s 1966 Studebaker Commander the victor. The featured

guest was Dave Kinney, the publisher of the Hagerty Price Guide and McPherson College Advisory Board member, who took a shine to a 1972 Ford Mustang Sprint belonging to Robert Thomas.

He also provided a lecture entitled ‘From Avanti 1001 to Avanti 5643’.

Automotive historian Matthew Short served as head judge. His professional experience includes The Henry Ford, the RE Olds Museum, the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum and America’s Packard Museum.

Away from the home-grown cars, a 1958 Mercedes-Benz 190SL took home the Teutonic Transportation class. After a close competition, Best in Show went to Allen and Nancy Strong’s 1936 Packard Super Eight, which was victorious over more than 80 vehicles.

Copshaholm Mansion is in South Bend, Indiana, the town where Studebaker was established.

THE 12TH ANNUAL MISSELWOOD Concours d’Elegance welcomed more than 100 cars and motorcycles to the ocean-front Misselwood Estate on the campus of Endicott College. This annual fundraiser helps raise money for Endicott College students, with all proceeds going to support those in need.

The concours was just one part of an excellent few days of automotive entertainment. Friday night’s Kick-Off Reception preceded an early-morning Cars and Coffee rendezvous on Saturday.

Later on there was a chance to enjoy the beautiful local countryside in the Tour d’Elegance, before an anniversary dinner.

Sunday was all about the concours, and Peter T Boyle’s 1928 Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8A SS was crowned Best of Show. It

was built in Italy, and then sent to LeBaron in the US to produce the gorgeous boattail cabriolet body. The Tipo was purchased new by aviation pioneer Harry Williams and his wife, the silent movie star Marguerite Clark, and has covered a mere 22,000 miles.

Keeping to the big-screen theme, Wayne Carini displayed his 1949 Buick Roadmaster from the Academy Awardwinning Rain Man in the Celebrity and Movie Cars Class, alongside a very famous 1985 Toyota Truck and 1949 Packard Custom 8 Victoria from the Back to the Future trilogy.

Elsewhere, eight Dino Ferraris made for a stunning entrance, while the event’s inaugural Hagerty Youth Judging Program proved to be a great success.

THE 18TH ZÜRICH CLASSIC CAR Award returned to the Bürkliplatz in 2022, to display fine automotive art in front of the Swiss National Bank. As ever, the diversity is a key part of this concours’ appeal, with 1980s Cadillacs rubbing shoulders with pre-war exotica.

One of the highlights was a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, which had been in the same ownership for 48 years. It still wore its original paint, and duly won the Best Unrestored award.

Cadillac celebrated 120 years in business in 2022, and the marque was given a dedicated class. Victory went to a 1939 Series 61. On the subject of US cars, a 1958 Plymouth Fury said to have been used in the filming of the 1983 film Christine was also in attendance, out of

the concours competition. At the other end of the size scale, a 1965 Austin Mini Pick-up found favour with the crowd, scooping the Public Prize. Other British oddities included a Jaguar-based Rapport Forte Estate prototype. Built up from parts in spring 1983, this wedge-like design uses a 5.3-litre V12, and is one of only two remaining of four built.

Two BMWs from the 1980s left with awards. A stunning M635 CSi won the Youngtimer class, beating a Lamborghini Countach in the process, while the Special Prize by Auto-Illustrierte went to a rare four-wheel-drive version of the E30 3-Series, the 325iX. The overall victor was a 1962 Aston Martin DBC4 SS Touring Superleggera, which also took home the 1960s class.

This 1947 MG TC George Phillips Le Mans Special replica was one of the event’s more unusual entries.

Location Quail Lodge & Golf Club, Carmel, CA, US Organiser The Peninsula Signature Events Chairman The Hon Sir Michael Kadoorie Attendance figures 6500 Honourees Five Marques celebrated 50 years of BMW M Division, Mini, 70 Years of Jaguar and its Le Mans wins Main sponsors Rolex, Bonhams, Rolls-Royce, Porsche, Acura, Flexjet, Bentley, Lamborghini, O’Gara, Audi, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Cadillac, Lucid and Maserati Charities Rancho Cielo and the Naval Postgraduate School Alumni Foundation Next year August 18, 2023 Website peninsula.com/en/signatureevents/events/motorsports Closest airport Monterey Regional

THE QUAIL, A MOTORSPORTS Gathering, brought more than 200 of the world’s finest cars to California’s Quail Lodge & Golf Club. While the concours was the focus, the event hosted restomods from the likes of Gunther Werks, Ruf, Singer, Kimera, Volvo/Cyan Racing, Totem Automobili and SpeedKore. In all, 19 models, including those from major brands, made their debut.

Bonhams sold $30m of lots; highlights included the last Ferrari 250GT Europa, at $2.095m, an ex-Steve McQueen 1971 Husqvarna 400 Cross motorcycle, at $186,500 and a 22,000-mile 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, at $1.738m.

The concours itself was won by Bill Pope’s Jaguar D-type. This car was tested in 1956 by Road and Track, which said it “was the best-performing automobile we have ever tested”. Pearce Woods drove it

many times, including the last Pebble Beach race to be run on public roads, in April ’56. It also notched up first-place finishes at Bakersfield, Honolulu and Paramount Ranch. In 1957, it raced at Sebring with Woods and Bobby Unser at the wheel, while Carlyle Blackwell and Ken Miles won at Pomona in 1958.

One of this year’s special classes was 50 Years of BMW M, and the winner was a suitably rockstar-style supercar – the M1. This particular example, owned by Benjamin Clymer, was purchased from the original owner – a member of rock group Pink Floyd – in February 2022.

That band member bought it new in February 1980, during The Wall tour.

The car lived a sheltered life, mostly in the UK, before travelling to the US; The Quail was the first time it had been seen publicly in some years.

200 of the world’s finest cars came to California’s Quail Lodge & Golf Club in 2022.

A UNIQUE DUESENBERG FINISHED ahead of 219 cars from around the world at this year’s Pebble Beach. Best of Show was the 1932 Duesenberg J Figoni Sports Torpedo of Lee R Anderson Sr. The other Best of Show contenders were Fritz Burkard’s 1937 Talbot-Lago T150CSS Figoni & Falaschi Teardrop Coupé, Sam and Emily Mann’s 1930 Duesenberg J Graber Cabriolet, and Merle and Peter Mullin’s 1951 Talbot-Lago T26 Grand Sport Stabilimenti Farina Cabriolet.

The late Fred Simeone received the Lorin Tryon Trophy in recognition of his contributions to the concours and the broader collector car community. And the concours raised $2.83 million-plus for charity, bringing the event’s total donations to over $35m to date. These funds will

benefit more than 95 local charities, through the Pebble Beach Company Foundation – the primary charitable partner of the concours – helping to improve the lives of more than 10,000 children annually in Monterey County.

The Le Mans organisers hosted the worldwide kick-off for the centennial of the 24 Hours at the event, and unveiled a new trophy at a special press conference.

Several former champions spoke at one of the forums, and the concours hosted 27 former Le Mans entries, 14 of which were overall winners.

Additional 2022 features included the Centennial of Lincoln, the coachwork of Swiss carrosserie Hermann Graber, Talbot-Lago Grand Sports, Alfa 8C 2300s, early McFarlans and 1932 Ford hot rods.

THE CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE Paleis Soestdijk returned for 2022 in its usual fine style. In the organisers’ view, technology is slowly but surely approaching contemporary perfection, comfort now corresponds to that of the home, but design keeps changing. To reflect this, the concours featured ten machines determined by age, culture and design – from the shiny copper of the pioneering years of the automobile to iconic, modern supersports cars.

Much like the original concours d’elegance in France, the event catered for contemporary machines to reflect electric motoring and developments in hydrogen. It also pointed to the future, with concepts from manufacturers on display. There was a pre-war sprint,

organised in collaboration with the Dutch Vintage Sportscar Club, plus a book fair dedicated to automotive reading, and a lot more besides. Away from cars, there was a fashion show and the Royal Fair, where art, clothing and other beautiful items could be bought.

The Iconic Sportscars of the ’80s and ’90s class was won by a 1987 Isdera Spyder, while Italian coachwork was celebrated with two classes, with the winners coming from the houses of Fiat and Maserati. The stylish Italian theme continued with classes dedicated to 75 years of Ferrari and 65 years of the Lancia Flaminia.

However, overall victory went the way of France, with a 1937 Bugatti 57C Stelvio Cabriolet Speciale taking Best of Show.

Former home of the Dutch Royal Family is the perfect place for a worldclass concours.

THE SAN MARINO MOTOR CLASSIC returned to Lacy Park in San Marino with another show packed to the brim with varied and exciting automobiles.

The 31-acre site had Prancing Horses at its core, with the Ferrari Club of America Southwest Region’s Concorso Ferrari taking the opportunity to celebrate the Maranello marque’s birthday in style. The Porsche Club of America and the Classic Car Club of America also put on great displays – the latter using concours organiser and chairman Aaron Weiss’s Murphy-bodied Duesenberg as its centrepiece. It had just finished in second place at Pebble Beach, so attracted plenty of attention.

The theme was Design in Motion, and the concours classes spanned more than 100 years. The day before the concours, there was a Symphony of Cars charitable fund-raising gala, and the event also hosted the Automotive Fine Arts Society Art Exposition and Sale.

When it came to the concours itself, the Nethercutt Collection’s stunning 1932 Maybach Zeppelin DS8 took the Best in Show Pre-War title alongside two other class victories. The Post-War winner was Ken Roath’s 1957 Alfa Romeo CSS 1900 Zagato Double Bubble.

The Concorso Ferrari was awarded to the 1967 Ferrari 330GTS of David Lee. Prior to this year, the concours had raised $2.8m for local charities since its 2011 debut, from the Pasadena Humane Society to Cancer Support Community Pasadena. This year’s Pasadena Humane Society award went to Barbara and Mike Malamut’s quirky 1962 Mazda T2000, which also won the Japanese class.

A 1956 FERRARI 250GT TDF Berlinetta by Zagato was awarded Best of Show at this year’s Salon Privé Concours d’Elégance presented by Aviva. The car is one of just five Ferrari 250GT long-wheelbase chassis cars designed by the Italian styling house.

Chassis 0515GT was originally built for Vladimiro Galluzzi, who competed in the car extensively during the 1956 season, before selling it to racing driver Luigi Taramazzo. It was eventually retired at the end of 1958.

The event celebrated the late HRH Queen Elizabeth II’s 70th Jubilee with The Platinum Collection, a display of 16 iconic models from Aston Martin, Bugatti, Ferrari, Jaguar, Lamborghini, McLaren, Morgan, Porsche, Rolls-Royce and Wiesmann. Salon Privé also featured

the global debut of the Engler Desat, the European debut of the Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster and the UK debuts of the DEUS Automobiles Vayanne hypercar as well as the Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II. Friday’s Ladies’ Day was definitely the occasion to see and be seen, while the Club Trophy on the Saturday saw more than 1000 vehicles from the UK’s car clubs take centre stage. On Sunday, Blenheim Palace’s grounds opened to the public for a festival of spectacular automotive action and high-octane fun, with 1000-plus vehicles on display across both the North and South Lawns.

The Live on the Drive Hill Sprint featured exhilarating runs from race and rally cars, plus a special parade to honour the 75th anniversary of Ferrari.

THE CONCOURS OF ELEGANCE celebrated its tenth year in style, with another exciting few days packed with the finest automotive treasures. The Best in Show award went to a 1938 Delage D8-120 ‘de Villars’, which was first shown at the Concours de l’Auto de Printemps in 1938.

King Charles’s Aston Martin DB6 Volante, a 21st birthday present from his late mother, HRH Queen Elizabeth II, won the Platinum Jubilee Award to celebrate 70 years of her reign.

Meanwhile, Ferrari’s 75th anniversary was honoured with an exquisite selection of Ferraris, from four-cylinder endurance racers to a 250GTO; the spoils went to the 1966 Ferrari 365P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti prototype. HRH Prince Michael

of Kent presented the Collector Award to Jack Boyd Smith Jr, too.

Elsewhere at the event, the inaugural women-only Levitt Concours, which celebrates female car enthusiasts and collectors, proved to be a great hit; the trophy was taken home by the owner of a 1932 Alfa Romeo Tipo B Monoposto.

The tenth anniversary Concours of Elegance also welcomed back a number of former winners, with cars including the 1938 Hispano-Suiza Dubonnet Xenia wowing the crowds yet again.

Gooding & Company’s London auction, held alongside the main concours in Hampton Court Palace’s grounds and courtyard, saw some excellent results for historic cars, such as an ex-Le Mans Ferrari 250GT SWB.

The grounds of London’s Hampton Court Palace formed the backdrop for the Concours of Elegance’s tenth anniversary.

FOR 2022, MORE THAN 18,000 people packed into the grounds of the Schwetzingen Palace to enjoy 180 cars constructed between 1890 and 1990.

This year’s event saw a special class dedicated to the Hessian brand Röhr, arranged on the palace’s terrace at the entry to the baroque park. Built between 1926-1935, these innovative, luxury cars had independent suspension, a low-bed box frame and gear steering, while their eight-cylinder engines provided prestige appeal. Around 4000 Röhrs were made, and it’s believed a mere 30 remain, with nearly half in attendance at Classic-Gala.

The event also marked Italian design house Bertone’s 110th birthday, with examples of the Alfa Romeo Montreal and GTV, Lancia Stratos, Fiat Coupé,

Lamborghini Miura and BMW 3200 CS showing the carrozzeria’s far-reaching influence. More unusual examples of its craftsmanship included a Mazda MX81 design study, Gordon-Keeble GK1 and six-door Fiat 850 that was used to drive visitors through Fiat’s Lingotto factory.

Cadillac’s 120-year anniversary was celebrated as part of the US Classic Car Concours that runs in tandem with the Classic-Gala, with cars ranging from a 1904 single-cylinder runabout to a 1991 Allanté Cabriolet. Mercedes-Benz also marked 70 years of the SL with a 1931 SSKL, as well as 50 years of the S-Class with the ESF 13 safety research car.

The 40-strong international jury gave Best of Show to a 1927 Rolls-Royce Phantom Tourer bodied by Hooper.

Schwetzingen Palace hosted more than 18,000 people and 180 cars for the 2022 Classic-Gala.

BEST IN SHOW D’ELEGANCE 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B (Lawrence Auriana).

Also won Star of the Rock: Pininfarina.

MORE THAN A THOUSAND CARS from across the spectrum of motoring made their way to Lime Rock Park in Connecticut for the Sunday in The Park event, which incorporated the Historic Festival 40 presented by Corvette, as well as the Lime Rock Concours.

Sunday was a day of racing rest, with vehicles parked all around the 1.5-mile circuit. The event also played host to the Gathering of the Marques, which attracted hundreds of cars parked in packs of brands or model types. Visitors could take in everything from rare motorcycles to rat rods.

This year’s honoured marque and model was the Chevrolet Corvette, with a one-of-five Grand Sport on display courtesy of the Revs Institute. The Team Penske 1966 Corvette coupe, powered

by GM’s legendary big-block L-88 V8 engine, was also a star attraction.

The concours itself saw 200 cars entered, with 14 selected for drive-up awards. At the heart of the event were 12 concept cars from the General Motors Heritage Center, along with a Corvette SS from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. These represented Corvette’s evolution from the 1950s all the way through to the early 1990s.

The Best in Show d’Elegance was Lawrence Auriana’s 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B, while a pair of Corvettes owned

by Irwin Kroiz shared the honours of Best in Show Sport 1 and 2. The star cars were a 1956 Corvette SR2 and 1960 Cunningham Corvette.

CRISP ALPINE AIR, GLORIOUS scenery and the glamorous Gran Hotel des Bains – a wonderful place to cap off an exciting week of automotive events with a garden party-style celebration of four-and two-wheeled delights.

The International St Moritz Automobile Week began with the Kilomètre Lancé, a modern interpretation of the Kilometre Race on the Shellstrasse during the original St Moritz Automobile Week in 1929-30. The modern version saw classics and supercars line up to blast down the 1.8km runway at Engadin Airport.

After this, the Targa Poschiavo set off for a two-day rally for vehicles built between 1905-26. The 200km loop took in Julier and Albula, with several time trials along the way. Meanwhile, old-school manual

supercars got a chance to play with a two-day 270km route on the Super Stick Shift rally. Open to cars built between 1974-95, the loop took in Albula and Fluela, and also featured four time trials.

The big highlights, however, were the Bernina Gran Turismo and the Motorsport Rendezvous. The former saw the Bernina Pass closed for competition, with collector cars old and new taking on all 50 corners of the 5.7km route.

That thrilling spectacle needed a good place to calm down – and where better than the Motorsport Rendezvous? Some cars were displayed at Paradiso, 2181m above sea level. For those with less of a head for heights, the hotel garden party was extended by a day for this year, for one static day and one 150km tour.

Stunning Alpine scenery forms a perfect backdrop for the International St Moritz Automobile Week.

Concours has a garden party-style atmosphere.

THE RADNOR HUNT CONCOURS may have been hit with rain, but there was no dampening of enthusiasm for the cars on display for the event’s 25th anniversary. A weekend of automotive entertainment kicked off on the Friday night with a barbecue, music, dancing and a first look at the cars on display.

On Saturday, the Bill O’Connell Memorial Road Rally saw competitors split into Classic and Sports classes, with trophies and prizes awarded to both the driver and navigator of each winning car. There were also various sub-classes and other awards, including for the Most Intriguing Vehicle. That night, attendees partook of cocktails and a silent auction, before dinner and dancing at the Radnor Hunt clubhouse.

Sunday was concours day, with the featured classes being Cadillac, Cars from the Derham Body Company, Porsche 4-Cylinder 4-Cam Cars, Cars of Honouree Chuck Cantwell and a Ferrari 75th Anniversary Display. The featured motorcycles classes were BSA and Motorcycles Made In America.

Best Of Show went to Robert Jepson’s 1925 Locomobile Model 48.9 Derham Convertible, while Irwin Kroiz took home the Best of Show Sport award for his 1960 Chevrolet Cunningham Corvette Le Mans No. 3.

The weekend’s MotorSport Park feature continued through to the Sunday, while Coaches and Carriages saw a procession of coaches and carriages head from a local gathering spot to Radnor Hunt.

ALTHOFF SEEHOTEL ÜBERFAHRT again played host to the 19th FIVA-A Grand Prix of Germany, the fourth time the event has taken place at Tegernsee.

The dreamlike Alpine scenery was the perfect backdrop for a wide range of cars, from Oldtimers to Youngtimers.

Organised by the team behind the famous Retro Classics Stuttgart trade fair, it also featured Neo Classics, which celebrates the collector cars of the future.

Admission to the concours at Tegernsee is exclusively by application only, and subject to final approval by the selection committee. The number of participants is limited to a total of 50 vehicles of all brands, types and years of construction.

The independent and top-class jury is composed of internationally renowned and experienced trade journalists, well known automotive historians and technicians, and revered car designers.

The jury was chaired by Prof Dr Peter Pfeiffer, former senior vice president of Mercedes-Benz Design and president of the German Design Council between 2007 and 2021.

Despite the changeable weather, Saturday was dedicated to presenting the vehicles around the Althoff Seehotel Überfahrt, and evaluation from the jury.

At the end of the day, after a Champagne reception, the participants were treated to a social evening with music, magic tricks by Tombeck and regional delicacies. It was an excellent evening among like-minded people, lively with petrol talks and drinks at the bar.

Sunday saw the winners announced – the Best of Show in the Oldtimer section was a 1929 Delage D6 owned

by Till von Der Hellen, while the Neo Classics section was won by Klaus Kienle’s 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLR Stirling Moss Edition.

THIS YEAR MARKED THE 17TH birthday of the Antwerp Concours d’Elegance, with glorious weather and a similarly special line-up of automotive treats, despite the day’s cold, foggy start.

This year the event pitched two giants of the German car industry against each other, with Stuttgart’s Mercedes-Benz facing off against Munich’s BMW. All good-natured fun, however, and the lovely grounds of Kasteel Belvédère showcased high points in both marques’ history.

There was further German splendour with a class celebrating 90 years of Auto Union and its affiliated marques; the quirky NSU Ro80 took victory. Hardcore Porsches were also thrust to the fore, with 50 years of RS models marked. The title went to a 993 Carrera RS. German cars were also victorious

elsewhere, with a BMW 700CS Coupé taking the Best Preservation title, and an exotically styled BMW De Ridder Special earning a special mention by the jury.

Meanwhile, a Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster that had been refreshed by MW Classic Stuttgart won Best Restoration.

For lovers of non-German cars, there was success in the Best Design Prix Ressence Classic for a 1956 Maserati 250Si, while the public vote went to a 1955 Cadillac Series 62 State Limousine parade car. However, Ferrari’s 75th year couldn’t be ignored, and something very special took class victory – Eric Clapton’s ex-Dino 206GT, which played a key role in inspiring his famous song, Layla.

Another Ferrari took the overall title; a rare 365GTB/4 Daytona Spider from Thierry Dehaeck’s collection.

The sun shone – eventually – to mark the 17th birthday of the Antwerp Concours d’Elegance.

A 1937 DELAHAYE 135M CABRIOLET bodied by Chapron took top honours at the inaugural Detroit Concours. Chassis 47538, with its unique grille, lower wing profile and wooden door surrounds, was the star of the Hagerty-headed event.

Over three days, more than 5000 participants enjoyed four events across the centre of Motor City, kicking off with Detroit Electrified, which focused on the evolution of alternatively propelled cars.

GM and Ford showed off the new Cadillac Lyriq and F150 Lightning respectively.

On Saturday, 200 cars took part in Concours d’Lemons, RADwood and a club display, while Hagerty’s Ride and Drive programme offered the chance for fans to experience cars from the Hagerty Learning Garage. These models included

a 1951 Buick Super Eight, 1963 Lincoln Continental and 1969 Chevrolet Camaro.

The Detroit Concours d’Elegance hosted an automotive art display on Sunday, with 120 cars carefully staged in the grounds of the Detroit Institute of Arts. Detroit-specific classes included Cars of Harley Earl and Detroit Autorama.

“Today’s concours was the fulfilment of a vision. Our goal was to create a world-class automotive event in the heart of Detroit; one that is worthy of the Motor City. Thanks to our entrants and our partners, that is exactly what we did,” said Hagerty CEO McKeel Hagerty.

Elsewhere, the Timeless Beauty Award went to Marc Dutton’s 1955 MercedesBenz 300SL, while Spirit of Detroit went to Brad Conley’s 1970 Buick GSX prototype.

THE SHORES OF GEORGIAN BAY and the lush fairways of the Cobble Beach Golf Resort hosted the eighth Cobble Beach Concours d’Elegance, which celebrated cars, planes and boats.

More than 100 automobiles from across Canada and the United States gathered to bask in their shared glory, all in aid of the Owen Sound Regional Hospital Foundation as well as the Sunnybrook Hospital Foundation. The event has raised more than $800,000 for both charities; net proceeds from this year’s Cobble Beach Concours will be donated to Sunnybrook for the construction of the brand-new Garry Hurvitz Brain Sciences Centre, where researchers and clinicians work towards revolutionising treatments for dementia, strokes, mood and anxiety disorders.

The three-day event began with the Participants’ Tour, which showcased the

beautiful Grey Bruce and Simcoe County roads on a 90km-plus drive over to the Bruce Power Visitor Centre. Saturday saw the return of the Cars and Coffee event at Wiarton Keppel International Airport, which also featured aeroplanes.

Later that day, Hagerty’s Concours d’Lemons took place in downtown Owen Sound in the River District. Other highlights for Saturday included two automotive seminars held at the local Roxy Theatre, along with the Collectors’ Dinner for participants and invited guests, with a live auction benefitting the Sunnybrook Foundation.

Sunday’s Concours saw Peter Boyle’s 1928 Isotta Fraschini 8a SS take Best of Show honours, while the 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder of Kai Riebetz was presented with the People’s Choice Award, in addition to scooping the Classic Porsche Pre-1983 silverware.

MORE THAN 330 CARS TOOK centre stage at the sixth running of The Bridge, held in association with Richard Mille. The invite-only event, which takes place on the site of New York’s former Bridgehampton race circuit, saw a wide variety of cars take to the fairways, with highlights including a 1932 ex-works Talbot built for the Fox and Nicholl racing team, several Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytonas, the 1962 Ford-Holman Moody Challenger III, a 1967 Bizzarrini 5300GT Strada, GT Porsches and a host of Lamborghinis.

There was also a chance to take in vintage prototypes and show cars, such as the 1967 Ferrari Dino Shooting Brake Prototype by Pininfarina, which was making its first public appearance since 1968. The ’68 Monteverdi High Speed

Pietro Frua Prototype previously owned

by Gunter Sachs and Brigitte Bardot attended, too, on its first trip outside Switzerland. The 1959 Citroën Squall Geneva show car was also resplendent on the perfectly presented lawns.

Lamborghini, Bentley, Aston Martin, Rolls-Royce, McLaren, Bugatti, Pagani and Koenigsegg brought along exciting new models, while Czinger’s 21C V Max made its East Coast debut alongside the 21C high-downforce version. Meanwhile, in the Bridge Next area, Rimac, Delage, Hennessey and Gunther Werks each made their event debut with an exciting selection of hypercars.

Every direction you turned on The Bridge’s fairways, there was something very special to look at.

Plenty of automotive eye candy at the sixth edition of The Bridge.

1960 Porsche 718 RS 60 ‘Works’ One of only four 718 RS 60 models used by Porsche’s factory racing team. Stirling Moss, Dan Gurney, Graham Hill, Hans Hermann, Bob Holbert and Jo Bonnier all drove it, and it competed at the Le Mans 24 Hours, Sebring 12 Hours and Nürburgring 1000km.

1980 Porsche-Kremer 935 One of 13 built, this 1980 Porsche-Kremer 935 was raced by the Kremer brothers in the 1980 German sports car series. It was then sold to IMSA champion John Fitzpatrick, who campaigned the car in the American IMSA Series in 1981 and 1982. It was later raced in the HRS series, before it was restored by Gunnar Racing.

1959 Citroën Squall Geneva show car This car was Citroën’s answer to the famed Alfa Romeo BAT cars, and made its debut at the Geneva show in 1960. It was restored in the south of France, and made its East Coast debut at The Bridge.

1948 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport Assistenza Bianchi The Bianchi team’s handpainted support car has been kept in Mario Righini’s collection up until now. Its appearance at The Bridge came during its first trip outside of Italy.

1961 Jaguar E-type Low-Drag Coupé This car was originally intended to be the first in a team of lightweight cars built to take the fight to Aston Martin and Ferrari in GT racing, but it was the only factory Low-Drag Coupé built. Featuring a much lighter and more aerodynamic frame than other lightweight E-types, it was retained

by Jaguar’s experimental department before it was sold to Dick Protheroe, who raced the car in 1963 and 1964.

237

KEVIN ARECHIGA / KIERAN BUTTRICK / CHRIS JEYES / TONY LAIACONA

1932 Talbot AV 105 Works This Talbot made its American debut at The Bridge. It’s one of three Works cars built by Talbot and its racing team, Fox and Nicholl, for the 1932 Coupe des Alpes.

The six-day race started in Munich and finished in San Remo on the Italian Riviera, taking in 1625 miles on Europe’s most challenging roads. This car was fitted with a unique lightweight engine and gearbox components, and bodied

by Vanden Plas. It’s the most original of the 1932 Alpine team, and is widely acknowledged as the most original Talbot Fox and Nicholl team car left in existence.

It’s recently completed two Mille Miglias and a Liège-Rome-Liège rally.

IRONSTONE CONCOURS 2022 WAS another vintage year – fitting, considering it takes place at the famous Ironstone Vineyards in Murphys, California.

More than 300 classic and vintage cars, trucks, trailers and motorcycles made the trip. The concours was just one part of an extended weekend’s worth of entertainment, which began on the Friday at the Ironstone Amphitheatre with the Cars and Stars dinner. This also saw an auction to support the Ironstone Foundation’s charities.

Saturday saw the Patrons Pavilion and Lunch, which allowed visitors a prominent position to take in the automotive delights in front of them.

This year’s highlights included a special class dedicated to De Tomaso, plus similar

ones for Jaguar, Porsche, Morgan, AustinHealey, Borgward, Mercedes-Benz and MG. There were classes for particular models, too, such as the Ford Thunderbird and Mustang, and Chevrolet Corvair and Corvette. An example of the latter would prove victorious in the FFA Award special class, with Kim and Rachel Nelson’s 1973 model winning out.

However, it was pre-war elegance that earned the major trophies – respective open and closed awards went to a 1923 Hispano-Suiza Million-Guiet Touring and a 1935 Lincoln K LeBaron Coupe.

At the other end of the scale, the best unrestored car was a marvellously patinated 1909 Maxwell LD Roadster.

Robert Jacobson’s 1933 Pierce-Arrow V12 LeBaron Convertible won Best in Show.

A special demo of 100-yearold race cars – including an entrant in the first Indy 500 – ran around a dirt track at the venue, taking the crowd back in time.

BEST OF SHOW CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE Aston Martin DBR22.

AFTER SEVERAL YEARS AWAY, Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille returned with a beautifully curated selection of automotive gems. The setting – André Le Nôtre’s 17th-century gardens at the Château de Chantilly – contrasted well with 20th- and 21stcentury greats crafted by everyone from Ballot to Ferrari.

On the Saturday prior to the main event, owners entered in the Concours d’Etat could take part in the Chantilly Arts & Elegance Tour, a 100km drive through local forests as well as the neighbouring regional natural park, with stop-off points at historic monuments in the area. This event was planned specifically for vintage vehicles, although supercar owners could enjoy their own tour instead. Designed for cars built from the 1980s onwards, this route took them to the Mortefontaine private circuit, where they were able to go flat-out, before being given a prime spot at Sunday’s concours.

Circuit action provided inspiration to several classes at the Château de Chantilly, with two Le Mans-dedicated groups focusing on aerodynamics and performance respectively. A 1971 Ferrari 512M won the former, a 1956 Panhard Monopole took home the title for the latter. Another Le Mans legend, a 1994 Bugatti EB110 SS racing car, won the class for modern-era Bugattis.

Carrozzeria Touring was celebrated with three classes, with winners spanning nearly 80 years. Awards were given to a 1939 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS, 1954 Alfa Romeo 1900 SSC Superleggera and 2015 Touring Superleggera Aero 3.

The big prize was presented to a modern supercar, the Aston Martin DBR22. Pre-war honours went to a 1938 Hispano-Suiza H6C Dubonnet Xenia, while a 1950 Talbot-Lago T26 GS Barchetta Motto took the post-war prize.

THE BOSTON CUP CELEBRATED its 11th consecutive year in 2022, welcoming 30,000 enthusiasts and 1000 VIPs to Boston Common and the Parkman Bandstand for a festival of worldwide car culture.

The event in the US’s oldest public park was blessed with great weather, allowing the guests to feast on not only some of the finest machines ever created, but also excellent food from Eataly and James Beard award-winning chef Tony Ambrose. Even better, there was the chance to try the latest tipples from the Boston Harbor Distillery and Sam Adams.

It was a wonderful atmosphere to take in a diverse selection of automobiles that ranged from pre-war models to new supercars, along with some surprises

along the way – such as a VW Beetle sporting full Herbie livery. New brands supported the event, too, with stands from Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Land Rover, Aston Martin and Rover Trophy (vintage Defenders brought back from the dead).

Best of Show went to a 1950 Ferrari 195 Inter bodied by Ghia. It’s been owned by Sally and Roger Demler since 1965. Chassis no. 00087S, which was restored by Restoration and Performance Motorcars in Vergennes, Vermont, also took home Best Italian class victory.

Meanwhile, Arthur Gutierrez’s ’57 Ford Thunderbird was declared Best American, while German honours went the way of Robert Vail’s 1958 Mercedes-Benz 190SL. Keeping the British end up was Don Rose’s 1960 Aston Martin DB4.

The US’s oldest public park hosted a fine display of cars old and new.

THE THREAT OF POOR WEATHER meant that the Ascona Classic Car Award’s traditional location – the lawns of Castello del Sole on the Saturday – was replaced with a Sunday concours on the Lungolago.

It proved to be the right decision, because Saturday was soaked, while Sunday was cloudy and cool yet without a drop of rain. Some cars that were unsuitable for wet weather were replaced at the last moment, but the turn-out of machinery was still excellent, with some true rarities on display.

This year’s special class celebrated 100 years of SS Cars and Jaguar, with the winner being a 1935 SS 90 called ‘Captain Black’ – the very first car sold by the company to a paying customer. Over the

years it has lived in the UK, US and Switzerland. Another Jaguar, an elegant MkIX, took home the Best Unrestored title. There was further British success in the public vote, with a 1949 Bentley Special MkVI scoring a win here.

The Germans hit back with victories in classes for Post-War to 1959, and 1980 to 2005 cars, while a rare BMWAlpina B3 4x4 took the Special Prize Auto-Illustrierte. However, there was one ‘home’ win, with the glorious Monteverdi 375 L Highspeed taking honours in the 1970s class.

Overall concours victory went to the UK, however, with a 1930 MG M 12/12, one of two built for the Le Mans 24 Hours, based on the ‘Double Twelve’ models that won the Brooklands Team Prize.

Organisers deftly avoided bad weather by moving the event day at the last minute.

A 1930 BENTLEY SPEED SIX SPORTS Saloon took Best in Show at the Audrain Newport Concours d’Elegance – one of just two built in the Folkestone closecoupled saloon style by British coachbuilder Martin Walter.

The concours was the culmination of a tricky few days for the organisers, with several events in the run-up to the big day sadly being cancelled due to poor weather. Sunday’s concours went ahead despite gusts reaching up to 30mph – however, the quality of the cars is what really blew people away.

The winning Bentley was entered by William Medcalf of Vintage Bentley.

This car was originally supplied new to Viscount Mandeville, the 10th Duke of Manchester, and William’s father bought it in 1982. Since then, it has travelled

extensively across the US, Canada, New Zealand, Japan and Europe. The original body was returned to the chassis during a three-year restoration.

The Breakers Mansion, the former home of the Vanderbilt family, played host to 180 cars from across the US and Europe, while 65 judges got to work.

This year’s concours held special classes for Aston Martin, Cadillac, Ferrari, Jaguar and the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost.

There was also a host of special awards, which we’ve detailed on these pages, and the People’s Choice prize went to the Nethercutt Collection’s 1931 Bugatti Type 51 Dubos Coupé. For 2023, the concours is planned to take place on Sunday, October 1, again as part of the Audrain Newport Concours and Motor Week, which begins on September 28.

Audrain Newport Concours went ahead despite inclement weather over the preceding days.

THE ROYAL ZOUTE GOLF CLUB’S perfectly manicured lawns provided the ideal atmosphere in which to play host to the Zoute Concours d’Elégance by EY. The event was a fitting way to cap off four days of automotive engagement on Belgium’s coast. It all started with the Premium Automobile and Art Dome – or PRADO – which combined 21 new and exciting cars with modern and contemporary art curated by the Guy Pieters Gallery. There was also a highly successful auction from Bonhams, which saw a BMW 507 Series 1 Roadster complete with factory hardtop sell for €2,093,000, and one of seven Aston Martin DB4s with the GT engine in left-hand-drive form go under the hammer for €1,236,250.

Friday and Saturday saw the Zoute Rally by Stow, a regularity rally for vintage and classic machinery. Around 225 cars toured through the Flemish Polders. On Saturday and Sunday it was all about the concours, however, and with this year marking Ferrari’s 75th anniversary, the organisers paid tribute with three classes. The winning car in the Post-War Best of Show class was a Maranello machine, too – Jan De Reu’s 1952 Ferrari 212 Inter Coupé Vignale. PreWar honours went to Bruno Vendiesse’s 1913 SPA 25HP Torpédo Sport.

Other special classes including those dedicated to the Mercedes-Benz 300SL and Alpine A110, as well as the John ‘Toj’ Tojeiro-inspired ACs. The winner of the latter was the 1956 AC Ace-Bristol belonging to Michael Williams.

Special Awards of the Jury were shared between four cars, with one of them being the thunderous 1979 Ferrari 512 BB LM belonging to Christopher Stahl.

A 1937 CORD 812 PHAETON FIRST owned by adventurer Amelia Earhart won the Chattanooga Concours d’Elegance, and so marked the end of a fantastic few days of automotive excitement. One of the most enthralling aspects was the Pace Grand Prix at the Bend, an invitational event for vintage and historic race cars held on a purpose-built street course along the banks of the Tennessee River.

The course was lengthened for this year, and included an infield loop, too.

The event also afforded the chance to take part in the Canossa Fall Rally Chattanooga, an event for classic and modern luxury and performance cars.

Operated as a road rally-style event, it took drivers and navigators on a predetermined route over two days.

Mecum also held a wide-ranging auction,

with a 1968 Shelby GT500KR Convertible attracting the highest bid, at $302,500.

Elsewhere, there was a chance to enjoy the best of what the car club enthusiasts had on offer, plus panel discussions with the likes of Chip Foose, Lyn St James, Ken Gross, Linda Vaughn, Brian Redman and Wayne Carini all taking to the stage. There was plenty to keep car lovers occupied, but true gems came out to play for Sunday’s concours.

Ferraris were a popular choice, with three dedicated classes in recognition of the marque’s 75th year, while Porsche and Mercedes-Benz were celebrated with their own classes. The RADwood class also went the way of Germany, with a Mercedes-Benz 500SEL AMG taking top honours. People’s Choice went to Marty Robbins’ No. 42 Dodge Daytona.

The 1969 K&K Dodge Charger Daytona was one of five ‘Wing Cars’ curated by famed NASCAR crew chief Ray Evernham.

BEST OF SHOW 1937 Cord 812 Phaeton (Laura and Jack Boyd Smith Jr).

Also won Pre-War American Classic, presented by Mike Haskey, Millennium Bank.

THE LAS VEGAS CONCOURS awarded Best of Show Post-War to the Mullin Automotive Museum’s 1951 Delahaye 235 Roadster in a highlight of a three-day automotive celebration.

The car was last shown by Jacques ‘Frenchy’ Harguindey at the 2007 Pebble Beach Concours; experts regard it to be Delahaye’s final luxury model.

It features stunning coachwork on an updated Type 135MS chassis, with the marque’s fabled 3.5-litre Grand Prix engine providing the motive power.

Mullin Automotive Museum founder Peter Mullin purchased the car after its 2007 appearance at Pebble, before treating it to a thorough restoration.

Best of Show Pre-War went to the Nethercutt Collection’s 1933 Duesenberg

‘Twenty Grand’. The SJ Arlington Torpedo Sedan was the factory show car for the ‘Century of Progress’ 1933-1934 Chicago World’s Fair. It was notable for its $20,000 price during the height of the Great Depression, when most cars cost $600-$800 – hence the name.

The concours itself attracted 230 automobiles across 15 classes, and it’s believed that 3000 visitors flocked to Nevada to bask in the sunshine. There were special displays and classes for Vector, the Ferrari F40, Corvettes, Shelby and Japanese cars. Friday’s gala at the XS Nightclub preceded Saturday’s concours, which was opened by Jay Leno at the Wynn Golf Club. Sunday morning’s Tour d’Elegance took selected cars along Las Vegas Boulevard.

A 1936 HORCH 853A SPECIAL Roadster took Best in Show at South Carolina’s 20th Hilton Head Concours d’Elegance. This was a good weekend for the car, owned by Robert S Jepson, as it also scooped Best Rolling Art. The event saw more than 600 vehicles from across the US and beyond make their way to the Port Royal Golf Club. It wasn’t just cars – there were displays for motorbikes, aeroplanes, watercraft and almost everything in between.

The concours wrapped up an exciting five days of events, from gala dinners to a film festival, plus the Parris Island Experience driving tour, which travelled from Berkeley Hall across the marshes, Chechessee and Broad Rivers, into Beaufort, home of Parris Island Marine

Corps Recruit Depot. Events from such diverse communities as Legends of the Autobahn East and the Austin-Healey Southeastern Classic added to the allure, while Design Among the Stars allowed people to mingle with leading designers such as Chris Bangle, Michael Simcoe, Ralph Gilles, Magalie Debellis, Tom Matsumoto and Cesar Pieri.

“Over the last two decades, our vision has grown into one of the most robust motoring events on the East Coast,” said president Lindsey Harrell. “This weekend was an exciting moment to celebrate what this show means to its audience. It is also an opportunity to reflect on our history, to plan thoughtfully for our future and to say thank you. We are grateful to everyone who supports us.”

Honouree Anne Brockinton Lee talks about her Ferrari 166MM Touring Barchetta with MC John Nikas.
