  • Mogsouth Newsletter 2 07
    SOUTHERN FOURS AND EIGHTS NEWSLETTER OF THE SOUTHERN MORGAN GROUP MOGS OUTH VOL. 2/07 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance March 9-11, 2007 O nce again we were headed to Amelia Island on a Friday afternoon. This time however we were traveling north, out of Orlando, instead of south, from Atlanta. We thought it would be a simple two and half hour drive, but then again, we always seem to make things a bit more interesting. We started off in the Plus 8, got just a few miles up the road and realized we had forgotten the camera. We had to turn around. I couldn’t go to Amelia without a camera. A half hour later we are back on the road, this time, however, we were in the Mustang. I just can’t get comfortable in the Plus 8’s super sport buckets. My butt Photos and Article - Mark Braunstein Braunstein Mark Article - and Photos 1938 Talbot-Lago T-150C Figoni et Falaschi Teardrop - Absolutely magnificent! Continued on Next Page 1 was hurting after the short 30 minute run. I hated the thought of not having a Morgan in Amelia Island, but I hated the thought of a 2-3 hour ride on those super sports buckets, quite a bit worse, and the 4/4 needed propane. I really do have to do something about finding new seats for the Plus 8 or rebuilding these. Andrea doesn’t mind the seats and doesn’t see a problem if I can’t drive the car. But I can’t even ride in it comfortably.

  • How to Reach Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille
    CHANTILLY ARTS & ELEGANCE RICHARD MILLE 9 & 10 SEPTEMBER IN THE PREMIUM LEAGUE! The fourth Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille will be held in 2017 and it has already earned prestigious accolades starting with the Historic Motoring Award of the Year for the first Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille by Octane, the benchmark British magazine, which gave it the same award the following year, and it was again nominated in 2016. Since 2015 it has enjoyed the honorary sponsorship of the French Ministry of Culture and Communications. And it has just been nominated by the Peninsula Classics Committee for the Best of the Best Award for 2016, 2017 and 2018. All these prizes have crowned the concept of this event that has revived the Concours d’Elégance of which France was the cradle in the 1920s, as well as celebrating the French Art de Vivre, an inestimable richness of which our country can be justly proud. Boosted by this success and still on the lookout for improvements to enhance the excellence of the event, Peter Auto is enriching and refining its concours to make it even more magical and captivating in the eyes of its public and partners. Thus, the 2017 event will have certain evolutions including new dates (a week later than in previous years), the Bonhams auction moved to Sunday, an even bigger spectacle with the return of Mario Luraschi with a new equestrian show, and a richer manufacturers’ village with Bugatti, DS Automobiles, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Tesla and others to be announced in the near future. And of course, the motorbikes! The ingredients that have put this newcomer in the premium league and thrilled more than 13 000 visitors in the last two stagings are still the same.
