From May 19 to 21, the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2023, one of the world's most important festivals dedicated to classic cars, takes place on the shores of Lake Como. Detailers from the #Labocosmetica team take care of the Lancia Florida Coupé with which Corrado Lopresto is participating.
Fifty-four four-wheel-drive masterpieces will compete in Cernobbio from May 19 to 21 for the prestigious trophy at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2023. It was back in 1929 when the first edition of this event, considered by many to be, along with Pebble Beach (California), the most famous event dedicated to historic cars in the world, was held .
The competition cannot be missed by our Brand Ambassador Corrado Lopresto, Italy's largest collector of classic cars. Corrado is participating with a beautiful Lancia Florida Coupe from 1955. The car was taken over by detailers from the #Labocosmetica team for a full Car Detailing treatment that restored it to its original splendor.

The Lancia Florida Coupe by Corrado Lopresto
The car with which Corrado Lopresto is participating in the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2023 is part of his collection, one of the most important in the world.
The Lancia Florida Coupé was first displayed on the Pinin Farina coachbuilder 's stand at the1955 Turin Motor Show. Made on the chassis of the Aurelia B56, this two-door coupe-bodied car is one of a kind .
The Florida's design, characterized by straight lines and sharp edges, would influence the automotive design world for the next decade, ushering in a new generation of cars that abandoned the curved, rounded lines of the 1950s in favor of squarer shapes typical of the 1960s.
Our detailers performed a complete car detailing treatment: from washing to polishing including a protective treatment. The detailers also took care of the car's interior, all using the products #Labocosmetics! Thanks to the extraordinary work of the #Labocosmetica team detailers , this car has been restored to its original splendor and is now ready to parade at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2023.
