Back to the south east for the next edition of the Tour Auto! After the day of checks and the exhibition of the cars at the Grand Palais Éphémère, drivers and co-drivers will set off on a route (still kept secret) of 2 km to walk the red carpet at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes. A popular destination where the Tour Auto caravan has already made a few stops, the last one dating back to 000. Young and old will be able to go to the Parc Fermé which will take place on the Croisette facing the Azure blue sea for the last day of the tour. car exhibition.

Zagato and Old English Girls in the spotlight

Several models will be celebrated in 2023. First of all, a retrospective of models bodied by Zagato, with obviously an important place given to Alfa Romeo, from the 1900 SSZ of the 1950s to the Giulia TZ of the mid-1960s, without forgetting the Giulietta SVZ and SZ, very often victorious in rally, but also the more confidential Fiat 8V Zagato, Fiat-Abarth 700 and 750 Zagato or even the Lancia Flavia and Flaminia dressed by the famous coachbuilder.

Last but not least, a tribute will be paid to the VEnglish girls, who left their mark on the Tour de France Automobile in the 1950s. AC Ace and Aceca, Aston Martin DB2 and DB2/4, Frazer Nash Le Mans Replica, Healey 2400, Jaguar XK120, 140, 150 and Type C, Sunbeam Alpine or Triumph TR2 and TR3 will therefore be invited to cross the Channel to reach the Grand Palais Éphémère which will welcome us again.
