The 6th Salon Prive luxury super car show is taking place at spectacular 200 acre Syon House and Park, the London home of the Duke of Northumberland, between the 22nd and 24th June 2011.
With the 15th century Syon House as a backdop the Salon features over 120 super and classic cars as well as 20 classic motorcycles.
Founded by Bagley brothers, Salon Privé has been previously held at The Hurlingham Club for 5 consecutive years. It has grown into one of the most prestigious and eagerly anticipated social events in the UK.
“We’ve confirmed a number of UK debuts and many other very special vehicles,”- said Salon Privé Co-Founder David Bagley. “What’s more, we’ve substantially added to the event this year. Guests can now actually drive some of the cars on the super car lawn and we now have a bespoke, “Quintessentially English” RM Auction, truly adding to the interactivity.”
100 years of the Spirit of Ecstasy mascot on the bonnet of Rolls-Royce cars added a new dimension to this year's Salon Prive. The vintage 1911 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost joined the centenary celebrations of the Flying Lady figurine by Charles Sykes.
Rainy spells on Boodles Ladies Day did not stop enthusiasm around Best-Dressed Lady Award, though abundance of umbrellas made the choise of finalists even more difficult for the judges. The Boodles Prize went to the contestant in a deep pink hat and orange coat, who made it to Salon Prive all the way from Mexico. The smiling winner received a £7 500 diamond "Raindance" ring from Michael Wainright, CEO of Boodles.
Sponsored by Chubb Insurance, Boodles, Pommery Champagne, Audemars Piguet and Vertu, Salon Prive added Waldorf Astoria Hotel of Syon Park to the list of luxury brands that it closely works with this year.
