The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, long regarded as the pinnacle of automotive culture and the crown jewel of Monterey Automotive Week, is where artistry, history, and engineering converge. Since its founding in 1950, it has stood as the most prestigious showcase of classic motoring, a place where the world’s most exceptional collector cars are judged not only on rarity and condition but also on their spirit of design.
Among this unparalleled gathering of automotive icons, His Royal Highness’s entry captivated the connoisseurs: a Class F 1933 Invicta 4½ Litre S Type Corsica Drophead Coupé. Famed among pre-war grand tourers, the Invicta S-Type’s “underslung” chassis bestowed it with a strikingly low silhouette and exceptional handling, while its Corsica coachwork remains a testament to the golden age of bespoke craftsmanship. With its flowing lines and elegant proportions, it is a car that unites power with poetry.
By presenting such a rare jewel of motoring history, His Royal Highness brought a distinctive regal presence to the Concours. It was more than a celebration of automotive artistry. It was a moment that intertwined Bahrain’s spirit of refinement with one of the world’s most glamorous stages.
