Cockatoo Island in Sydney Harbor, Australia, was the site of a convict prison in the 19th century and later a naval shipyard and repair facility which was decommissioned in 1992. Now in its seventh year, the Sydney Harbor Concours d’Elegance took place on the island for the second time from February 28 to March 2.
The Concours had a stunning display of classics old and new displayed in the giant historic sheds surrounded by some very heavy, now redundant, machinery that used to service the warships’ engines. There was a selection of new Bentleys, Lamborghinis and McLarens to tempt those rich enough, but a tastefully curated selection of classics were the real stars of the show.
