BRERA MAKES APPEARANCE AT LOUIS VUITTON CLASSIC
| One of the main events on
the classic car calender is the Louis Vuitton Classic concours d'elegance,
held each year in the Bagatelle Park in Paris. Brought forward to June
from its usual autumn slot, this 15th running of the event featured some
of the rarest and most interesting classic cars from around the world.
This year American classis cars were the main feature, pride of place going to a 1914 Ford Model T. Other Americans included the 1930's Duesenberg J-Type, a must have for film stars of that era, as well as famous Indycar and NASCAR models and a Le Mans winning Ford GT40. However, amongst the classics on show were modern era protoypes and joining the new Peugeot RC concept car was Italdesign's Alfa Romeo-badged, Maserati Coupe-based Brera, first revealed at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year. The Louis Vuitton Classic is the first stop on an awareness program for this fully functioning sportscar prototype. |
