Concours Sendup

Written by:

Next week the World’s most famous Concours D’Elegance gets underway at Pebble Beach, California.

Cars worth millions of dollars each are displayed in all their finery – owners, too!

But on the same weekend and only a few kilometers away in Monterey  there is another ‘Concours’.

This is called the Concours D’LeMons….

They have several trophies and class awards including:-

THE RUEFUL BRITANNIA AWARD- for the Royal Order of MOT Failure

or

THE NEEDLESSLY COMPLEX ITALIAN AWARD- Conoscete un Buon Meccanico? Plaque
