Concours D’Elegance

Much has been made in the past about what the rules should be and indeed who should set them!

Judging is also a very delicate area with some judges spending 30 minutes on a car – others not even opening the door.

We as a club try to offer a fair and balanced judging by using our own very experienced judges supported by judges from other national motoring organisations and clubs.

We respect the fact that many competitors have travelled long distances and spent a lot of time in preparation of their cars.

Our rules are printed and circulated – every competitor has a copy so there is no doubt or confusion.

Our judges will check and inspect all items on the car. As in previous years we shall be organising both Condition and Concours competitions.

For those who aren’t sure of the difference, a basic definition is:

CONCOURS

As the car left the factory. No modifications are allowed to the body, interior or mechanics – no extra chrome or special equipment.

However marks will not be deducted for alarms, fire extinguishers or stainless steel exhausts.

CONDITION

As the owner wishes to present the car – the overall condition is what is judged.

Premier Class is for those cars that won their class at Harrogate MG 2011 or National events.

Master Class is for those cars that won while in Premier Class.

It is important for all entrants to be with their cars until after judging.

Judging cannot be completed without the owner present.

Marks will be awarded in both Concours and Condition classes as follows: -

maximum points

Bodywork & chrome 40

Engine compartment 35

Boot compartment 20

Interior 30

Wheels & wheel arches 20

Underside of vehicle 20

Presentation 10

TOTAL 175

Our thanks go to the judges for judging at our show and to the MGOC for sponsoring the trophies.

Judging to commence at 11.30 am Winners will be declared at 4.30pm
