The Cartier Style et Luxe Concours d’Elegance at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed was held 26-29 June on the lawns of Goodwood House in West Sussex, England. This year’s event celebrated its 20th edition at the Festival of Speed and honored the best in design throughout the history of the automotive industry.
Best of Show at the 2014 Goodwood Cartier Style et Luxe Concours d’Elegance was awarded to a 1953 Maserati A6 CGS Berlinetta by Pinin Farina. The Maserati, which is owned by Egon Zweimuller Jr, took victory in the coachbuilt Maserati-only Class 3: ‘The Height of Fashion’, and later beat off competition from the other class winners to claim the overall victory.
The judging panel was chaired by Mail on Sunday editor Geordie Greig and also featured Olympic gold medalists Sir Chris Hoy and Sally Gunnell, actor Rowan Atkinson, Apple design chief Sir Jonathan Ive and handbag designer Anya Hindmarch plus other notable names from the world of sport, the arts and design.
Class 1: ‘Vintage Voiturettes’ was won by Keith Bowley’s 1925 Amilcar CGS while victory in Class 2: ‘Blown Away’, which was held just for Mercedes-Benz 500K models, went to Winfried Ritter’s Cabriolet A model. A 1960 Lincoln Continental, owned by the La Salle Collection, triumphed in Class 4: ‘Affairs of Status’, while Class 5: ‘Mid-engined masterpieces’ went to Stephen Keen’s 1968 Lamborghini Miura P400S.
Bill Shepherd’s 1966 Ford Mustang Mustero won Class 6: ‘Horses for Courses’ which celebrated American cars powered by small-block V8 engines, while victory in Class 7: ‘Best foot forward’, marking front-engined British sports cars of the 1990s, was won by Graham Abbott’s 1997 TVR Cerbera Speed 12.

Marvelous exotics mixed with boring Mustangs,etc.
Must be some sort of parody on other Concours.
If other events were Goodwood, this surely is ‘Badwood’
