We've been to Salon Prive to get the round up on the UK's most prestigious supercar show
Over the last few years, Salon Prive has become widely regarded as the UK’s most exclusive supercar show – and we’ve been to the opening day at Syon Park in West London.
Among the countless classics and swathes of modern day metal, stood a number of UK debuts. Top of the list was the all-new Aston Martin V12 Vantage Roadster which premiered next to the ultra exclusive V12 Zagato and £1,000,000 Aston Martin One-77.
Bentley chose the occasion to launch its Continental GT Speed – the fastest road going Bentley to date – complete with 616bhp, 6.0-litre twin-turbo W12.
Lesser-known manufacturers weren’t immune either. Salon Prive saw the unveiling of the Rimac Concept_One electric hyper car and Croatian Tushek Renovatio T500.
Alongside these, were stands from BMW, Jaguar and Noble as well as an exquisite collection of Ferrari F40s and classic Mercedes’ SLs.
Charging £195 per ticket helps maintain a level of prestige otherwise unheard of in the UK. However, it does get you unrivalled access to some of the world’s most expensive machines – and as much Champagne as you care to drink.
