Thee well manicured Fountain Gardens of Hampton Court Palace once again hosted the Concours of Elegance, presented by A. Lange & Sohne, over the weekend of September 4 to 6.
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and associate travel restrictions, a number of would-be foreign entrants were unable to participate.

The first feeling after your first hour in this airplane-automobile is freedom, absolute freedom!
There is really nothing to compare it to a cabriolet, due to the absence of the windshield, because you now have a 180 degrees free view.

There is not much to report in the Ferrari market at the moment. It has been suprisingly strong, although high-end prices have been trailing downward.
