Heavy showers didn’t dampen spirits at the prestigious Salon Privé Chubb Concours on 31 August. Overall victory at the event, which was being held at Blenheim Palace for the third year running, went to the magnificent 1960 Alfa 3000CM Superflow.
The Italian beauty fought off stiff competition from the other class winners, including a Lamborghini Miura that topped the Supercar Pin-ups category. A ’31 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental with saloon coachwork by Barker was awarded top spot in the Luxury in Motion class and a 1961 Ferrari 250 California Spider took the laurels in Riviera Cruising.
