Lamborghini to celebrate the Salon Prive with a whole host of cars from its past, present and future ranges.

  • Lamborghini at Salon Privé from 1st to 3rd September
  • Lamborghini Centenario makes UK public premiere
  • Miura 50th anniversary celebrated in concours class alongside one-off Miura Roadster
  • Original Miura SV from 1971 Geneva Motor Show restored by Lamborghini PoloStorico
  • Exclusive Diablo class in the Pirelli Prestige & Performance Competition
  • Lamborghini Huracán models featured in test drive programme
Bringing the splendor of Sant’Agata Bolognese to Oxfordshire, Lamborghini celebrates past and present at this year’s Salon Privé, with activities including concours entries, a debut and supercar test-drives.
With cars to admire, marvel at, and even test drive, there’s something for all Lamborghini fans, and Salon Privé is delighted to announce the full Lamborghini event plan for its amazing event from the 1st to 3rd September.

Salon Privé and Lamborghini PoloStorico, the marque’s heritage division, will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Lamborghini Miura, universally regarded as the first-ever supercar. With its own class in the prestigious Chubb Insurance Concours d’Elégance, 50 Years of the Lamborghini Miura will see over ten of the world’s best examples entered into the Miura-only category, with two examples making their way from the USA in order to compete.
As part of the celebrations, the PoloStorico division will display the iconic one-of-one Lamborghini Miura Roadster, which will take pride of place on the lawns of Blenheim Palace.
Also on display as part of the 50 Years of the Lamborghini Miura class celebrations is the original Miura SV shown at Geneva Motor Show in 1971. It will be showcased at Salon Privé following its recent comprehensive restoration by Lamborghini PoloStorico. The unique pre-production model was originally built with parts of the Miura S, but incorporated pioneering features that would be seen on later SVs.
Not to be outdone, the Pirelli-backed Prestige & Performance Competition on Saturday 3rd has its own Diablo-only class, The Diablo Tribute, where a 2000 6.0 VT Final Edition will battle it out in the modern-day concours against nine other entrants, including chassis number 001 SVR, the first of just 31 racing versions produced, a limited-edition SE30 30th anniversary model and also a VT Roadster.
Throughout the event, Lamborghini’s official Birmingham dealership will manage guests’ test drives in the rear-wheel drive Lamborghini Huracán and its four-wheel drive equivalent, as well as the Spyder version. The 15-mile test-drive opportunity is part of Salon Privé’s ‘see it, test it, drive it’ experience. Salon Privé is the only event of its type that allows its guests to drive cars on the public road in the UK.
For media wishing to attend this year’s event, media accreditation is now open and press can apply via theonline booking form by providing their credentials and preferred attendance date. Media invites are limited, so interested parties are advised to apply as soon as possible.

The New Rolls Royce Dawn makes it's UK Public Premiere at the Goodwood breakfast Club.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars celebrated the UK public premiere of the company’s latest model, the Rolls-Royce Dawn, at the Goodwood Breakfast Club on Sunday. More than 10,000 fans and enthusiasts were able to experience the car at first hand and speak with employees from the Home of Rolls-Royce, based a short distance from the Goodwood Motor Circuit.

The new Rolls-Royce Dawn takes inspiration from the elegant and timeless Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn dropheads of the 1940s and 1950s, whilst delivering a world-first in super-luxury motoring – a cool, modern interpretation of what a super-luxury four-seater convertible motor car should be in 2015 – rare, refined and the most social motor car there is. 
The new Rolls-Royce Dawn stands apart from its stable mates, featuring 80% unique body panels, and is the quietest open-top car ever made.
Displayed alongside Dawn, Wraith ‘Inspired by Music’ also drew huge crowds, attracted to the effortlessly cool exterior finish, contemporary use of copper in the interior and the extraordinary clarity of sound and dynamic range delivered via a Bespoke Audio system. Wraith ‘Inspired by Music’ completes a trilogy of striking and distinctive Bespoke Collections. 
The first, Wraith ‘Inspired by Film’ celebrates Rolls-Royce’s long association with the silver screen, whilst Wraith ‘Inspired by Fashion’ allows customers to commission a true piece of automotive haute couture inspired by the materials and motifs of cutting-edge high fashion.
Complementing the Rolls-Royce Dawn and Wraith on the Motor Circuit grid was a Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II, finished in the bright purple colour scheme and branding of Together for Short Lives, the UK children’s palliative care charity. The Ghost Series II has been donated by Rolls‑Royce Motor Cars for a year and will be used by the charity as it embarks on a non-stop ‘Rolls Rally’, visiting all four corners of Britain. The rally will raise awareness of the charity’s work, helping to provide round-the-clock care to some of the most seriously ill children in the country.
