“Salon Privé is by far the best ‘event’ of its kind I have had the privilege to attend. Our team were absolutely blown away by the attentive staff, and the surroundings we were operating in.” Welcome to the 9th annual edition of Salon Privé. Now an internationally-renowned brand and firmly established as one of the UK’s leading automotive as well as social events, Salon Privé has grown from a relatively small Supercar Show in 2006 to a leading boutique motoring occasion which now includes the following displays:
•
British Supercar Show
•
Chubb Insurance Concours d’Elégance
•
The Salon Privé Sale in partnership with Silverstone Auctions
•
EFG Art & Luxury Fair
•
Royal College of Art ‘Concours of the Future’ Exhibition
•
Hypercar Collection
•
Concepts & Prototypes Display
While en route to becoming one of the UK’s leading motoring events, it has also developed a reputation for offering fabulous bespoke all-inclusive hospitality at unbeatable prices within a uniquely un-crowded and immensely enjoyable atmosphere.

“Salon Privé fits our customer demographic perfectly in beautiful surroundings.”
The Br itish S uperc ar Sho w
Salon Privé has always been a unique event within the motoring calendar and 9 years on, it remains so. It is a motor show with a difference and the only event in the UK to focus purely on luxury and premium automotive brands. In spite of its size, many models make their UK debuts at the event, with some making European as well as global debuts. Manufacturers from around the world converge on Salon Privé, eager to present their latest, most spectacular models and in so doing, transform the lawns of Syon Park into a spectacular 3-day Garden Party of motoring style, glamour and excitement.

“Great people, great cars and as always, all of it delivered with a smile and an extremely helpful attitude makes it a must-do event.�
Chubb In sur a nce Conco urs D ’ Elég a nce
The Chubb Insurance Concours d’Elégance is a prominent feature of Salon Privé. Blending the old with the new, the event has successfully incorporated a worldclass judged classic car competition, alongside the manufacturers’ displays.
Attracting hugely wealthy collectors, owners and enthusiasts from around the world, the 2013 Concours saw over 100 staggeringly rare and valuable motor cars displayed on the lawns for the three days.
For 2014, guests will enjoy the spectacle of dedicated classes for the Ferrari 275 and the Jaguar D-Type; we also have classes for Maserati and Zagato who will be celebrating their 100th and 95th birthdays respectively. Overall there are 9 historic car classes with 75 cars entered and 2 motorcycle classes with 25 bikes entered; it will be, far and away, our best Concours to-date.
As always we have an impressive line-up of 18 world-class judges including Chief Judge Derek Bell MBE, Design Director of Rolls-Royce, Giles Taylor and Andrea Zagato, to name but a few.
Now in its 9th consecutive year and featuring more international entrants than ever before, Salon Privé is, without doubt, the most established and exclusive Concours d’Elégance in the UK, with its ‘Best of Show’ trophy being the most coveted accolade of its kind on our shores.

“We have seen incredible organisation, professional staff and we received the best treatment ever. It has been a pleasure to meet and work together, congratulations on a great success.�

Normally presented behind secure barriers at international Autosalons, this new display feature, which has become a fully integrated class in the Chubb Insurance Concours d’Elégance, featured no less than two European debuts, both flown in from their North American debuts at Pebble Beach. These were the Spyker B6 Venator Spyder from the Netherlands and the Icona Vulcano from Italy.

T h e E FG A rt & Lu x ury Fa ir
Art and motoring go hand-in-hand and this year’s EFG Art & Luxury Fair presents a wonderful selection of original sketches and paintings by some of the most coveted international automotive artists.
Original prints and posters, as well as memorabilia, are offered for sale and guests are able to observe some of the artists in action as they create bespoke pieces during the event, right before their very eyes!
Elsewhere within the event, art is further celebrated with the Royal College of Art ‘Concours of the Future’ Exhibition. A now permanent feature within Salon Privé, the Exhibition presents sensational designs from 10 selected students from the College who chose their favourite classic car as the basis for their work.
All of them are stars of the future, with the 2013 winner being Francesco Binaggia, with his stunning interpretation of the fabulous Nardi Bisiluro.

“Everyone loved the event with so many stunning sights and sounds, you can see it’s bigger and better this year!”
Rainbo w T rust Children’s Ch a r it y Salon Privé is extremely committed to charitable causes and has raised over £670,000 for varying charities over the years. This year, once again, we are delighted to be supporting Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity, a charity very dear to our heart, which looks after the forgotten heroes such as the siblings themselves of those affected by traumatic illnesses in the family.
Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity provides practical and emotional support to families when their child has a life threatening or terminal illness. Their support lasts from diagnosis through treatment to bereavement, or recovery and beyond. Immediate help is on hand through eight teams of Family Support Workers operating from bases across the country. Rainbow Trust’s Family Support Workers join the family in their own home and are there to provide whatever practical support is needed. They may attend hospital appointments with parents, sit by the bedside of the sick child to give parents a break or take worried siblings out for the day.
We do hope you can share in this very worthy charity and help us to raise significant funds for the Rainbow Trust.

The Boodles Ladies’ Day at Salon Privé has become a very firm fixture on the social calendar. As with every other day, it’s relaxed and un-crowded but there is definitely a sense of friendly competition in the air on Thursday as ladies arrive in beautiful, often flamboyant hats and equally stunning dresses, each hoping to be crowned Boodles Best Dressed Lady, with the winner going home with a stunning piece of Boodles jewellery.
It’s a vibrant day full of colour and excitement which sees the final selection of ladies escorted to one of the awaiting classic cars and driven around the event before returning to the Boodles marquee and awaiting the final decision.
