At the recently concluded Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, H.H. Arvind Singh Mewar, the Maharana of Udaipur became the first Indian ever to win an award at the internationally reputed classic car event.
Shriji’s 1924 Rolls-Royce 20 HP, Barker Tourer (GLK 21) was one of two cars from India selected by the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance panel to participate in the event, but it was the Rolls-Royce from the House of Mewar that went on to win the Lucius Beebe Trophy on August 19, 2012.
To mark the historic occasion, the House of Mewar also released a 194-page coffee table book dedicated to the history and restoration of this favourite royal car along with the family’s association with Rolls-Royce over seven generations.
Titled ‘The Royal Udaipur RR GLK 21 Classic drive from Derby to Udaipur to Pebble Beach and…Continues’ the book relives the car’s journey from being purchased for spare parts to becoming a family favourite.
Speaking on the eve of the conclusion of Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in California, Shriji said, “By participating in this event, we want to showcase our legacy and our heritage – because today ‘Living Heritage’ has more currency than luxury whose definition is so dynamic.”
The House of Mewar has always encouraged various car rallies by actively supporting them. The participation in the Pebble Beach event is another illustration of the royal family’s commitment to protect and showcase their living heritage in order to promote the idea and its importance.
