The Concours of Elegance at Hampton Court Palace brings together a selection of 60 of the rarest cars from around the world – many of which will never have been seen before in the UK.

One of the stars of our 2018 edition captured beautifully by our Official Event Photographer, @timscott. This DB5 Convertible publicly debuted with us post-restoration and it’s still looking wonderful today. #astonmartin #db5convertible #volante @dylanmilescars

The Concours of Elegance is delighted to announce its nomination for the Historic Motoring Awards Concours of the Year. It's the show's latest nomination, having already been named winner twice since its creation in 2012. A testament to the quality of the cars on display at the Concours, a number of them have also been shortlisted in the Car of the Year category. Visitors to Concours of Elegance 2021 will recognise the 1907 Rolls-Royce 40/50 Silver Ghost AX 201, the 1950 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Ghia and the inimitable 1979 Aston Martin Bulldog. To register your vote for Car of the Year, or buy tickets for the award ceremony, head over to the Historic Motoring Awards website. (Pic credit: @amyshorephotography)

The @goodingandcompany Award was presented to this 1966 Alfa Romeo TZ2, chassis AR750113, the most successful TZ2. In 1966 it took class victories with Autodelta at the Nürburgring 1000km, Trento-Bondone, Circuito Del Mugello, Corsa Della Mendola and the Coppa del Chianti Classico, where it also finished first overall. However, its biggest success came at the Targa Florio, again run under the Autodelta banner. With Enrico Pinto and Nino Todaro behind the wheel, the car finished fourth overall and first in class.

The Future Classics award was presented to this Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus 004C. The car is the road-going version of the SCG 004C, which competes in GT racing across the globe. Last year the car finished first in class and 14th overall at the 2020 Nürburgring 24 Hours. The car is nicknamed the Golden Giraffe due to its bold paintwork and funky interior.

Repost • @classicdriver This Ghia-designed Alfa Romeo Supergioiello might steal the show at Villa d‘Este This Alfa Romeo 1900C Sprint Supergioiello is one of the rarest jewels in the brand’s post-war history. With just 18 made and only 3 surviving to this day, this weekend's @concorsodeleganza_vde is probably the only place you’ll ever see one. If you happened to be enjoying a gentle stroll beside the shores of Lake Como yesterday there's a possibility you'll have clocked the pugnacious front end of this distinctive coupe as it growled past during the Prelude Tour of classics that took place ahead of the start of this weekend's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. But only true connoisseurs of Italian exotica are likely to have been able to pinpoint the model - because this is an example of one of the rarest post-war Alfa Romeos in existence: the elusive 1900C Sprint Supergioiello with Ghia bodywork, a mere three of which are believed to have survived out of just 18 originally built.

The @bridgeofweirleather Design Award went to the Delahaye Type 135MS Faget-Varnet. Faget-Varnet created several bespoke bodies for Delahaye, and this particular model was made for the 1953 Paris Motor Show, based on a 135 chassis – it would be the last ever coachbuilt Delahaye.

The Berlinetta Class was won by this magnificent Ferrari 250GT Tour de France. This particular car is chassis 0763GT, one of several originally supplied to Jacques Swaters for use by the Belgian Ecurie Francorchamps race team. It’s a three- louvre, covered-headlamp example, and was sold to Leon ‘Elde’ Dernier, a prominent privateer racer of the day. (Pic credit: @charlieb.photography)

The most charming and chaotic award of Concours of Elegance 2021 – The Junior Concours - went to a junior Jaguar E-type in perfect condition and expertly piloted by its works driver. (Pic credit: @timscott)

Winner of the 1920s award was this Bamford & Martin A3. Aston Martin A3, which is commonly referred to as A3, is the oldest-surviving Aston Martin. The third of five prototypes built, A3 was first registered as AM 270 in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, in 1921. A3 saw extensive use for both personal and competitive use with none other than Lionel Martin behind the wheel. (Pic credit: @timscott)

Thank you to our official event comperes @peter.wallman and Richard Charlesworth, both oracles of automotive and enormously entertaining across all three days of the event. From the handover of the Best in Show to the charming chaos of the Junior Concours, they elevated the live stage into a genuinely enrapturing experience. We look forward to welcoming them back to London Concours next June. (Pic credit: Patrick White)

@alangesoehne hosted a Connoisseur Conversation between Wilhelm Schmid, Anthony de Haas and Richard Hammond at Concours of Elegance earlier this month. They talk about the details of a car combined with precision matchmaking.

The rarest of all Ferrari F50s were the Nero Daytona (black) and Argento Nurburgring (silver) examples, of which there were just four apiece. This particular F50 is one of the latter, and is also equipped with a straight-pipe Tubi sports exhaust, winning the post-1980s award at Hampton Court Palace earlier this month.

Winner of the pre-1915 award - Rolls-Royce 40/50 'AX201'. Chassis 60551 was the 12th 40/50 off the line, and it was destined to be a company demonstrator. Registered as AX 201, it was given a Roi-des-Belges body by Barker, and finished in aluminium paint. At a time when most cars were as noisy as they were unreliable, the model’s distinctive looks and relative serenity in motion lent it the Silver Ghost name. (Pic credit: @timscott)
