The 2009 Concorso d\u2019Eleganza Villa d\u2019Este took place April 24-26th on the grounds of the Grand Hotel Villa d\u2019Este and Villa Erba on Lake Como in Cernobbio, Italy.<\/p>\n

An Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Berlinetta Touring claimed victory\u00a0in the coveted Trofeo BMW Group, awarded “Best of Show” by the judges at the Concorso. And it was not only the Jury who were won over by the 1938\u00a0Alfa – the two prizes awarded by public voting, the tradition-rich Coppa\u00a0d’Oro Villa d’Este and the Trofeo BMW Group Italia, also went to the car\u00a0owned by American Jon Shirley. In the Concorso d’Eleganza Design Award for\u00a0concept cars and prototypes, the public voted for the Aston Martin Lagonda\u00a0One – 77.<\/p>\n

As in recent years, the car enthusiasts from all around the world were treated to glorious sunshine on Saturday. Although the sun was replaced by grey skies and continuous rain on Sunday, nothing could dampen the spirits of the more than 2,600 visitors who flocked to the grounds of Villa Erba in Cernobbio.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe great response from the public despite the poor weather shows how this event has become a firm fixture on the calendar of car aficionados from both this region and countries around the world,\u201d said Karl Baumer, President of the Concorso d\u2019Eleganza Villa d\u2019Este and Director of BMW Group Classic. \u201cThe weather on Sunday could have been better for the 80th anniversary of the Concorso, but a sunny Saturday with this selection of cars provided a more than worthy setting for our anniversary Concorso,\u201d added Jean-Marc Droulers, President of Villa d\u2019Este S.p.A.<\/p>\n
