Introducing a brand new feature for 2025: the Restoration Showcase in partnership with Classic & Sports Car magazine

Classic and Sports Car Partner Logo

Bringing together master craftsmen and their stunning restorations, the ‘Restoration Showcase’ at each event will offer visitors an unprecedented insight into the painstaking work involved in bringing automotive treasures back to their former glory. Each participating car will be driven onto the stage, where the restorer will be interviewed by Mick Walsh, International Editor of Classic & Sports Car magazine, sharing the fascinating stories behind these automotive resurrections. Often, it’s these backstories that guide the restoration process, preserving important dents, materials or colours that may have a particularly significance.

Set to take place at both London Concours and Concours of Elegance, this new addition celebrates the exceptional craftsmanship, dedication, and skill behind the world’s most meticulously restored classic cars. An expert panel of judges will assess each restoration for its authenticity, attention to detail and execution awarding an overall winner during the show.

The winner of the showcase at the London Concours will compete alongside Concours of Elegance entries for the overall Restoration Showcase ‘Restorer of the Year’ award, representing the pinnacle of automotive restoration excellence.
