Concours
Concours Preparation to the highest standard
Although we prepare our Vintage Bentleys with active use in mind, inevitably after a major preservation and restoration exercise, many of our clients are invited to display their cars at major Concours events all over the world.
Our skillsets, experience, engineering resources and in-house capabilities combined with our unrivalled knowledge of Vintage Bentley mean that our work is often suitable for Concours event participation.
We absolutely prefer to preservation over restoration and abhor overly shiny finishes applied by some in restoration projects, that do not reflect authentic output from Cricklewood in period. However, we are proud of the work we undertake and often a Concours event presents a high profile showcase for our expertise and an opportunity for enthusiasts to see a car for the first time, so we are more than happy to undertake Concours preparation on any Vintage Bentley.
All we ask is that once your Bentley has been on display - you subsequently undertake to find an opportunity to drive it - preferably hard - so that the engineering integrity of our work has an opportunity to shine - not just the shiny bits visible on the car!
