At each edition of Wheels Mariënwaerdt, an international jury assesses the participating vintage cars. There are several awards, but the most important is, of course, the Best of Show. In previous editions, the participants below won this prestigious award.Since 2023, a Best of Show has also been released on today's and future cars. Which cars do you prefer?

The trip will culminate in the future with an absolute Dutch first. Fresh off his world debut at the prestigious Monterey Car Week in California, where it was unveiled at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering and was on display at Pebble Beach, the collection presents the spectacular Bugatti Brouillard. This' One-Off 'masterpiece, of which only one exists in the world, represents the absolute top of personalization and design and can be admired in the Netherlands for the first time.
Such a complete Bugatti timeline, from the first racing legends to a unique, forward-looking work of art, has never been seen in the Netherlands. The Perridon Collection offers a rare museum experience that reveals the soul of this iconic brand.
For many years, the undisputed highlight of the event has been the Pre-War sprint!
