JUDGES AND JUDGING PROCESS
The London Concours panel
A world-class selection of cars needs a world-class judging panel. Made up of all ages and backgrounds, the judges are led by Peter Read – London Concours Steering Committee chair – and challenged with selecting a winner of each class, and an overall champion. Automotive experts include Simon Thornley, founder of restoration specialist Thornley Kelham, and Octane magazine
editor James Elliott, while others such as Helen Kirkup – Montres Breguet UK brand director – provide a real eye for detail through their luxury experience. Throughout Tuesday June 8, the panel will assess each car for its history, condition and originality. Class winners will receive their own trophy, while the overall winner will take home the London Concours trophy and a magnum of Veuve Clicquot.
