A joy to behold
The Italian automotive industry, responsible for brands like Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Maserati and, of course, Lamborghini, puts passion and design above everything – not a secret by now.
But when 50 Lambos of all ages, shapes, sized and colors coming from the brand’s 54-year history get together in Neuchâtel, Switzerland in the memory of Charles-Édouard Jeanneret-Gris you know you’re in for an exquisite Concours d’Elegance.
Known as Le Corbusier and considered by many the greatest architect and designer for the 20th century, Jeanneret-Gris was born in La Chaux-de-Fonds (belonging to the canton of Neuchâtel). But on this occasion, his birthplace hosted a long list of Lamborghini models, including the likes of Miura, Countach, Espada, LM 002 and Marzal.
Organized by Lamborghini Polo Storico, the Lamborghini Concours d’Elegance is at its first edition and it focused on restored and authenticated models that have been out of production for at least a decade.
What’s more, a verde senape 1971 Lamborghini Miura SV was awarded the Best in Show title, while the Best of the Best prize went to the Marzal prototype designed by Marcello Gandini in 1967.
Also on the Lamborghini front, here’s all you need to know about Sant’Agata Bolognese’s upcoming SUV, the Urus.
