- Stories by Bennett Oghifo

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars celebrates the largest gathering of Rolls-Royces in the world at the Rolls-Royce Enthusiast­s’ Club Annual Concours and Rally, in the Club’s Diamond Jubilee year. The spectacula­r setting of Burghley House in Stamford, Lincolnshi­re, will provide the perfect backdrop for a record number of motor cars, with over 1000 heritage and contempora­ry Rolls-Royces attending for the first time in the Club’s history.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, according to a statement, will honour the occasion with a significan­t display of Goodwood-built Ghost, Wraith, and Dawn motor cars. The collection will include Wraith Black Badge and several highly Bespoke models. The motor cars will be hosted by a team, including apprentice­s, from the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood. In previous years the display has drawn large crowds throughout all three days of the event with their passion for the marque, particular­ly the latest models, evident amongst fans, enthusiast­s and owners alike. Andrew Ball, Global Corporate Communicat­ions Manager, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said, “We are delighted to be presenting contempora­ry RollsRoyce motor cars at this spectacula­r event. The Rolls-Royce Enthusiast­s’ Club is a vital custodian of our marque’s remarkable history, and events such as the Annual Concours and Rally serve to give the wider public close access to some of the most important and rare motor cars in automotive history.”
