Jaguar Car Show

By Bill Landon

It was the Jaguar Drivers Club of Long Island’s 51st edition of their annual car show held on the Great Lawn of the Suffolk County Vanderbilt Mansion, Museum & Planetarium Sunday afternoon, Oct. 6. The show, known as the Jaguar Invitational Concours d’Elegance, was held under brilliant sunshine and deep blue skies in the heart of Centerport, overlooking Long Island Sound. 

Jaguars and anything British adorned the lawn of the 43-acre estate as the entries were judged in several different categories: Championship, Driven and Special Division as well as the People’s Choice and Judge’s Choice awards.
