CONNECT WITH CONCOURS OF ELEGANCE
The cars may take centre stage, but it's the atmosphere that makes Concours of Elegance truly special. This year's event brought together extraordinary automobiles, wonderful company and exceptional hospitality, all within the historic surroundings of Hampton Court Palace. From conversations on the lawns to a glass of champagne in the sunshine, these are the moments that make the occasion so memorable. Images: @charlieb.photography
One of the most celebrated supercars of the 1970s, and one of the rarest versions of the Countach. The Lamborghini Countach LP400 'Periscopio' was the original production interpretation of Marcello Gandini's revolutionary design, first revealed to the world in concept form at the 1971 Geneva Motor Show. Produced from 1974 to 1978, the LP400 featured a 3.9-litre V12, distinctive scissor doors and a recessed roof channel designed to improve rearward visibility. Unlike later Countach variants, the original LP400 retained the purity of Gandini's design, without the extended wheel arches and prominent aerodynamic additions that would follow. With only around 150 examples built, it was an exceptional sight outside Hampton Court Palace at this year's Concours of Elegance.
One of the rarest and most unconventional Land Rovers ever built. The 1959 Land Rover/Roadless 'Forest Rover' was a fascinating addition to this year's Concours of Elegance, displayed as part of The Collector Michael Dacre's collection. Developed for extreme forestry terrain, it features enormous 48-inch tractor tyres, heavy-duty Kirkstall axles manufactured by Kirkstall Forge Engineering in Leeds, and modified hubs. This particular example, XSY 698, was the second Forest Rover built and retains a diesel engine, while later examples used petrol power. Just nine were produced, with only six surviving today. A remarkable piece of British off-road history, and an extraordinary sight at Hampton Court Palace. Images: @tshaxson
