Taking place at Munyaka in Midrand over the weekend, scores of the most pristine metal locally were presented under the beaming African sun to display their immaculate condition and delve into a bygone era. 
A celebration of the best of South Africa’s rich classic car heritage took place on the shores of the largest man-made lagoon in the southern hemisphere this past weekend. For the first time in Concours South Africa’s 6 year history, the winning car was a pristine specimen from Zuffenhausen. This was the 7th edition of the event which took place at Munyaka in Midrand. The two-day event kicked off on Saturday with judging by an expert local and international panel proceeding the following day. The warm Sunday afternoon concluded with a prize-giving ceremony.
The Concours is not a contest of speed, but of elegance. Automobiles are judged on the quality of presentation, historical accuracy, technical merit and style—and the best garner reward and recognition.
Ross de Aubreu’s 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera narrowly beat a close field which included a 1958 Alfa Romeo Touring Spider. This particular Alfa has recently been brought back to life after being found “dead” in the Arizona desert.
A varied selection of South Africa’s automotive greats included BMW South Africa’s landmark 530 MLE, a 1971 Ford Capri Perana (chassis #29) as well as broadcaster, Jacob Moshokoa’s “Mondrian blue” 1992 VW Citi Golf.
