Auto Retro began a new stage with
changes in management. The participants
included exhibitors from 10 countries,
and the show featured more than 600

over the last 100 years. In addition to ve-
hicles, the commercial offer also included
accessories, spare parts, publications,
tourism, insurance, etc.

veritable jewels as a 1955 Jaguar XK140,

2,000 vintage vehicles. More than 200
cars paraded around the old Montjuïc
motor circuit.
Tribute was paid to Fermín Sulé, who
launched Auto Retro in 1984, in recogni-
tion of his lifetime activity of promoting the
world of motor vehicles.
