On September 12, 13 and 14, it was finally time: we celebrated the 145th anniversary of Spyker right here in the Netherlands at the beautiful estate of Landgoed Mariënwaerdt.
Our stand featured a stunning display of five Spyker cars, alongside several historic Spyker carriages and even a Spyker coach — a tribute to the brand’s extraordinary heritage.
For the very first time at a public event, we unveiled the striking #145, a bold yellow Spyker with black wheels that originally served as a show car for the Asian market. We also presented a Laviolette chassis currently undergoing a fresh rebuild, giving visitors a glimpse behind the scenes of our craftsmanship.
One of the true highlights was the super-special C8 Spyder #210, finished in an eye-catching MC12 livery. Alongside it stood the fully restored C8 Laviolette #178, a shining example of our dedication to detail. And of course, the line-up would not have been complete without the legendary #001 — the very first Spyker ever built.
All of our cars were prepared to absolute perfection by PP Cardetailing, ensuring they looked their very best for this prestigious occasion. To make the celebration even sweeter, we surprised visitors with custom-made Spyker lollipops, which turned out to be an enormous hit.
Despite the less-than-promising weather forecast, the weekend blessed us with three beautiful days at the picturesque Landgoed Mariënwaerdt. The atmosphere, the cars, and the celebration of 145 years of Spyker made this Concours d’Elegance one to remember.
