 Last week was the "20 HP Register Rolls Royce Enthusiasts Club Touring from Asturias". Under this long intrincate headline one of these typical turistic rallyes took place, in this particular case in the North of Spain. As nearly all participating cars were beautiful with high quality bodies it made no sense celebrating a concours d'elegance to point out the best car of all, and so the concours was about dressing up the well known mascot. The theme of the "costumes" had to be Spanish as you can see in the main photo, but the contestants proved to be very imaginative and created prehistoric displays (photo 4) or a "nest inside the snake´s mouth" (photo 5). Even there was somebody who used the concours to express his opposition against the marque´s current ownership (photo 6). We must congratulate the organisation for this creative pastime, as interesting for the drivers/owners as to their companions even when they had only superficial interest for old cars.(Text Francisco Carríon, photos Unai Ona) |
