With the high quality of the entrants, such a large number of rare classic cars presented a challenge to the many judges. This year, they chose a 1931 Bentley 8 Litre Gurney Nutting Sports Tourer for the event’s top award. The owner, Sir Michael Kadoorie of Hong Kong, acquired the car in 2010. The car has been driven on many tours and rallies over the years and received its first full restoration in 2004.
