Cernobbio, 22nd - 24th of May, 2015

Just one week after the Mille Miglia Italy saw its second major event for classic cars with the Concorso d´Eleganza at the Villa d´Este at the Lago di Como. What the former is for the drivers of high profile cars of the classic era is the later within the concours scene, both based on a prestigious historic event and very well established as a classic interpretation over the last decades.

Few other concours feature an equal niveau both in the setting and the cars on show and aside the major concours in the US a Best in Show award or the public award Coppa d´Oro at the grand hotel is still amongst the most prestigious honours a car could get. Again in nine classes and the concept car class established by BMW 58 cars were lined up both at the main day at the Villa d´Este and the public day at the Villa Erba to a record crowd. Being restricted in space mainly at the name giving venue on Saturday the field is of a reasonable size leaving enough time to enjoy the details of every car during the day compared to other shows that impress with the sheer number of cars. The classes featured both the traditional examples of the coach built era before and after the war but just opened itself to the early 1970s attracting design icons coming more into focus during the last years. This can also be seen in the fact that the jury at the Concorso d’Eleganza has always been more open to the post-war and race car examples as candidates for the BoS compared to the more traditional concours awards of French and Italian design of the 1930s in the US like the last years winning Maserati 450S in the Maserati centenary year.
