Salon Privé 2015
The tenth edition of Salon Privé is over and for the first time was held in the enchanting court of Blenheim Palace. An unforgettable experience for the lucky guests, who were welcomed at an event far more than impressive, thanks to a fabulous location, great food, a lot of champagne and of course the most beautiful cars in the world.
During the first day, the Concours d’elegance took place: the classic catwalk models crowned the Jaguar XK120 Jabekke as the “Best of Show”, while visitors declared the Delahaye 135 MM as their favorite.
The second day of the event, called “Ladies Day” is the most formal and glamorous, where participants, who in the late afternoon also took part in the auction held by Silverstone Auctions, are invited to dress elegant and possibly with a little retro taste.
On the third day, open to a larger number of people, we saw the introduction of the “Prestige and Performance Concours”, won by a Pagani Zonda Roadster, while you could attend many exclusive models like LaFerrari, Porsche 918, McLaren P1, Veyron , the new Zenvo ST1 and Aston Martin Vulcan and the impressive Koenigsegg One:1.
It would be simplistic to limit the description of such an event to a sterile list of all the supercars and historical pieces of great value present: we have breathed a magical atmosphere, very similar to the one of Goodwood, but far more distinct and formal, for an appointment that should be marked with indelible ink, on the calendar of every self-respecting enthusiast.
