The Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace is an event which attracts the world’s finest show cars. Set in the stunning palace grounds, it has a unique garden party feel with the event attracting international entrants from all over the world and it is one of our highlights of the year.
As well as having our usual trade stand, this year displaying two fabulous cars, a stylish 1925 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Piccadilly Roadster and a stunning 1939 Lagonda V12 Rapide, we were there in support of the 1924 Hispano-Suiza that was entered into the Concours. We were delighted when the car won the 1920’s Class, as well as the special ‘Spirit of Motoring Award’.
The Best in Show winner is uniquely chosen by the Concours car owners themselves and was this year awarded to the truly exceptional 1926 Rolls-Royce Phantom I ,‘The Phantom of Love’. This is one of the most famous Rolls-Royces of all time and has a truly exceptional interior rivalling the Sistine Chapel! It is a car we have conserved and looked after for many years.
