Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will conduct the largest gathering of Rolls-Royce motor cars in the world this weekend at the 57th Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club Annual Concours and Rally. The setting of Burghley House in Stamford, Lincolnshire provides a lawn for a record number of motor cars. More than 1000 heritage and contemporary Rolls-Royces expected.
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is honoring the occasion with a display of six Bespoke (aka custom) models, hand-built by craftsmen and women at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood. Examples of Phantom, Ghost, Wraith and Dawn will be on display. The motor cars, hosted by a team of experts from the manufacturing plant, are expected to draw large crowds throughout the three-day event (Friday to Sunday).
Rolls-Royce says that an increasing number of enthusiasts are choosing to acquire a Goodwood-built Rolls-Royce to complement their heritage collections. This occurs either by commissioning a new motor car or purchasing through the company’s Provenance Program. This is reflected by the recently launched ‘Goodwood Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Register’, which is the fastest-growing section of the Club.
The Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club caters for anyone with an interest in the motor car products of Rolls-Royce. From just 11 people at the inaugural meeting in 1957, membership is now approaching 10,000, making it the largest club of its kind in the world. Membership is open to owners and non-owners alike and members are drawn from all walks of life and from many countries around the world.
