5th ANNIVERSARY OF MAGNA MARBELLA
Thursday, July 28, 2022 was the summit day of the three days of the “I Costa del Sol Concours d'Elegance” since it coincided with the “V Anniversary of Magna Supercars”, this being the pioneer company of this event.
As was done in the four previous editions, the place chosen was the Magna Marbella golf course, just 100 meters from the official headquarters of Magna Supercars. On one side you could see the sea and on the other the beautiful urbanization of Magna Marbella with the La Concha mountain behind it.
Throughout the day, the Magnas Supercars team was taking cars from their facilities to the event site, and it was only at 6:30 p.m. when the more than 400 guests began to arrive, little by little, with their almost 200 cars. historical, classic and sports. Some participants allowed themselves the luxury of sending their cars by truck and arriving themselves by helicopter.
As happened the day before, access was only possible with accreditation. On this occasion, access was allowed to the media, such as Informativos Tele 5 and Canal Sur Televisión, among others.
The cars were parked by color to avoid favoritism when managing parking spaces, except for pre-1960 cars, which had a reserved and limited area; just like it happened with Hypercars.
With a program very similar to the previous day, changing the location, attendees had time to eat and drink, while the judges inspected and selected the best units from the categories that were not present the previous day. A live music and dance show enlivened the evening for those present.
More than a dozen gastronomic stands were present during the afternoon to entertain the participants: oysters, caviar, champagne, exotic fruits or sushi, among many other delicacies that captured the attention of the attendees, almost as much as the most expensive and exclusive cars. present there.
Next to these gastronomic stalls, a chill out area was located where you could comfortably watch the music show and the subsequent car parade in front of the judges.
At that moment in the parade, the drivers were able to give the latest information about their cars presented in the competition, just before the awards ceremony began.
The jury composed from left to right by the famous international journalist Ian Kuah, Vidal Castro, former president of the Andalusian Automobile Federation; Keko Romero, content director of the Motor Guide; Iñigo Olaizola, expert in Retromobile classics; and Jesús Bonilla, director of the magazine Motor Clásico of the MPIB group. During the parade you could see jewels on wheels such as a Bugatti from the year 37 in impeccable condition.
The awards ceremony, with a cold fire in the background as props, was the apotheosis moment where it was finally possible to know the winning cars selected by the team of judges.
Once the awards ceremony was over, all attendees went up to the Magna Café restaurant to enjoy a gala dinner and comment on the most beautiful moments of the day.
