As usual, a lot to enjoy at this year's Salon Retromobile. Here are my personal Top 30. No one else will agree with my order but it is difficult to argue that they were not all great exhibits at the 2019 Retro-Mobile in Paris.
Much to admire at RetroMobile this year including:
- Bedelia, a tandem pre WW1 voiturette.
- Exhibits from the Musée de Compiègne.
- The Museum at Beaulieu and Fangio's BRM.
- The sixty years of the Mini.
- Lamborghini Muiras.
- One hundred years of Citroen.
- Renault's turbo years.
- Bugatti and its luxury tourers.
- Richard Mille presents 50 years of McLaren.
- The Power and the Glory of Bentley.
- The Artcurial Auction
- The artists gallery.
