It was an afternoon of vintage style at the fourth Cartier Concours D’Eléganc 2015 held at the Jaipur Polo Ground.
Curated by automotive historian and expert Manvendra Singh Barwani, the Cartier Concours D’Elégance showcases some of the rarest and best-preserved vintage automobiles from across India. ‘Travel with Style’ is among the world’s best four Concours d’Elégance—a vintage car exhibition and competition held every two years in India.
