Kenya: Introducing Concours d'Elegance 2013

By Karuga Wa Njuguna, 22 February 2013

The Concours D'Elegance is one of Kenya's biggest social functions with owners of vintage cars getting to show off their cars and the best awarded for it.

The event dubbed the "classiest event in Kenya" is an initiative of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club and has been running for the last 42 years.

It sees people come out for a day of fun, fashion and glamour combined with an enthusiasm for some of the best cars that have ever been built at the Ngong Racecourse in Nairobi.

Last Wednesday evening the Panafric Hotel in Nairobi's Valley Road saw the introduction of the title sponsors for the 43rd running of the event with sponsors Commercial Bank of Africa signing up for the second year.

The cocktail was attended by Alfa Romeo Owners, club members led by their chairman Bob Dewar, CBA executives led by chief operating officer Geoffrey Githinji and racing enthusiasts.
