"When you gather the finest, most historically significant automobiles in history at one of the most beautiful harbourside gardens in Australia, expect nothing less than a splendid concours exhibition oozing class and elegance.
The event, powered by Ferrari, was founded by international concours judge James Nicholls and proved to be a rumbling success for the exclusive, 350 invite-only guests."

“I think what Justin has done is not only beautiful but emphasises the very epitome of Jaguar. Lower and sleeker and with just the right amount of drama and amazing stance. The mechanical installation of the magical Jaguar V12 just adds to the magnificent beauty of this car. Sir William Lyons would have approved, I am sure.”
IAN CALLUM,
Director of Design
JAGUAR CARS
"Concours d’Elegance adds a little panache to Darling Point.
You and I know we've been missing out."
JOHN CONNOLLY,

“It’s sure to be an occasion that defines style and automotive elegance, especially as the man behind the event, and the person you need to contact for an invitation, is the effervescent James Nicholls.”
