London Concours has announced a new class, Built To Race For The Road, to celebrate homologation specials at this year’s event.
A selection of roadgoing competition cars, from an MG Metro 6R4 to a Porsche 959, will vie for victory at the Honourable Artillery Company in central London on 6-8 June 2023.
They will join a Grand Tourisme class, for French classics, an Evolution of Aero division, for aerodynamic innovators, a 60 years of Lamborghini showcase, plus a 50-strong Porsche RS feature.

One of the homologation-special stars will be a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Touring.
Based on a 911S, the 210bhp RS 2.7 made the 911 eligible to compete in Group 4 racing and it looked the part, too, with its distinctive ducktail spoiler.
