SWISS ARTIST DANTE TO BRING ICONIC SPORTS CAR SERIES OF SCULPTURES TO UNITED STATES

“24-Karat Ferrari 250 GTO to be Unveiled during World Famous Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance Weekend”

BERN, SWITZERLAND, July 25, 2011-Award winning artist Dante has announced that the United States debut of his newest sculpture will take place next month in Pebble Beach, California. “I am delighted to have the chance to come to Pebble Beach to experience the finest Concours event in the world and exhibit my sculptures,” said the artist. The highly anticipated third piece in Dante’s Iconic Sports Car series will be unveiled during the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance weekend which gathers significant collectors and the finest examples of automobiles from around the globe.

“The iconic car sculptures are my tribute to the men who made the original cars: they were artists,” said Dante. As a Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance sponsor, a Design by Dante tent will be in position Thursday, August 18 through Sunday, August 21 on Peter Haye Hill adjacent to the Concours site in RetroAuto Plaza, amidst fellow Concours sponsors such as The Wall Street Journal, Porsche and Infiniti to name a few. Dante will personally be on hand to meet with media and special guests.

Dante will reveal his newest sculpture, a Ferrari 250 GTO, coinciding with a special display of rare Ferrari 250 GTO cars which the Concours has assembled from all over the world. “One of the most important reasons for my coming to Pebble Beach is the celebration of the Ferrari 250 GTO and the number of original cars being shown. It is my favorite car of all time,” said Dante.

Did you catch our last News/Blog "What Drives Tiger Woods" ?

What Drives Tiger Woods?

We all know how well Tiger Woods drives but when he is not on the golf course what does he drive? 

It seems he is not on the course much these days and that has led to problems for him. Since his divorce, his less than sizzling performance in the recent tournaments and his physical problems has led up to Tiger having financial problems. Not our kind of problems, but problems on a grander scale. His golf earnings and his endorsements have gone south while the ex-wife has taken a large divot from his large green bank account.    

I, being an Exotic Car Broker, thought perhaps one of his cars from his collection might come up for sale. I did some research to see what ponies he may have in the garage. Turns out the most recent news I could find on the subject matter was before the divorce.

Tiger, the "family man" seemed to only have two vehicles at that time. The family car was a very conservative Buick Enclave that did not seem to be golf club proof. The other car though was a Porsche 2000 Carrera GT.

You might wonder, if he had been driving this that night, he may have been gone long before the ex-wife's back swing, avoided the trees and avoided the press coverage.

How different life could have been.
  



So the morale here is, always drive the Porsche when making a get away. On second thought, Always Drive The Porsche!

I'm not sure what Tiger is driving these days but I hope to see him driving a golf ball and a golf cart real soon.

Brits abroad – in old cars

Posted on July 11, 2011 by weltchmedia

The British abroad may not enjoy the best of reputations, if tabloid tales of boozing and fighting are to be believed. But tours and rallies involving Brits and their classic cars really do earn the UK some kudos among our neighbours.


We were lucky enough to take part in one such recently -  the Tour de Bretagne is a two-day run in beautiful Brittany countryside, and the Weltch Media Nissan Pao relished the chance to join prestigious vehicles such as MGs, Triumphs, and even an Aston Martin.

We’ve blogged before about classic car events, including the MSA Classic run, as well as the appeal of classic micro-cars, but overseas events such as this do add an extra dimension.



As well as the chance for an envious close-up look at the other cars and to meet some fascinating people, tours in Europe enable classic car owners to show off their cars to a new audience.

We were delighted at the friendly waves from locals as we passed through villages, bringing back memories of the Liege-Brescia-Liege rally, which we entered in a Berkeley in 2008. This more ambitious and more competitive run is unique among classic car events – offering the option of competition, or just to use it as a non-competitive driving holiday through stunning mountain scenery.

The LBL continues as an annual event – generally still aimed at small cars, but with Jaguars eligible for the 2012 rally!

If you own a classic car, we’d recommend both these events – fantastic fun and your chance to do your bit for the reputation of Brits abroad.

If you’re enquiring about either of these events, please tell them we sent you. And, if you are involved in motoring or motor sport of any kind, please check out the expert communications services we offer.
