A Century of Aston Martin: The Aston Martin Owners Club Confirmed for Concours of Elegance 2026

The Concours of Elegance is delighted to confirm that the Aston Martin Owners Club will bring an exceptional display of 25 cars to Hampton Court Palace this September. It is a collection that spans nearly a century of the most celebrated name in British motoring.

Few manufacturers can lay claim to a lineage quite like Aston Martin’s. From the banked curves of pre-war Brooklands to the sun-drenched boulevards of today, the marque has always combined performance with beauty. The Aston Martin Owners Club display will trace that journey in full.

Among the 25 cars is a 1930 International that took to the Brooklands track in competition in 1931. That it will share a lawn with a brand-new 2026 DB12 Volante gives some indication of the breadth of the collection on show in September.

The DB12 Volante deserves special mention. Finished in Supernova Red with a matching red roof and an interior of Ivory and Spicy Red, it represents Aston Martin at its most contemporary and glamorous – a fitting counterpoint to the Newport Pagnell cars that form the heart of the display.

Those cars need little introduction. The collection includes a DB4 GT, a DB5 and a DB6, three of the most revered sporting cars Britain has ever produced and together a definitive survey of the six-cylinder era at Newport Pagnell.

Zagato features strongly too, with both a V12 Vantage Zagato and a Vanquish Zagato Shooting Brake on show. The Italian coachbuilder and the British manufacturer have collaborated to produce some of the most visually striking cars of the past sixty years, and two of their finest will be at Hampton Court in September.

Concours of Elegance 2026 takes place at Hampton Court Palace from 4-6 September. Further announcements will follow in the coming weeks.
