IT is a journey back in time with Concours d’ Elégance Durban, as the second annual competition of elegance returns to the city.
Steeped in tradition as one of the most distinguished classic car showcases in the world, Concours d’ Elégance Durban celebrates the country’s automobile heritage and the art of mechanical engineering on 27 and 28 July at Durban Country Club.
The renowned event attracts an impressive gathering of the country’s most elegant collector’s cars, all competing for the title – Best of Show.
Another great coup for Concours d’ Elégance Durban this year is the inclusion of the vintage and classic motorcycle class.
“We welcome classic car owners to chronicle their timeless classics, vintage or veteran masterpieces or motorcycles in the prestigious competition of chic sophistication. We have been impressed with the overwhelming response and pleased that we will soon reach capacity in the car and motorcycle divisions. We look forward to providing our guests with a world class event, where they can enjoy this vintage experience of fine wheels and old-fashioned flare,” said event organiser John Aritho.
