There is less than a month to go before Beaulieu’s eagerly anticipated Supercar Showdown roars into life on Sunday 23rd August. Returning for its fifth year, this high-octane event in the grounds of the National Motor Museum promises to wow visitors with over 250 supercars joining the display, with the addition of spectacular demonstrations taking place throughout the day.

See, up-close, some of the giants of the supercar world from Lamborghini and Aston Martin to Porsche and Ferrari and watch as these powerful machines flex their muscles on the Demonstration Run. The runs, taking place twice during the course of the day, will have the cars thunder through the Beaulieu parkland, a sure pleaser for all petrol-heads.
Amongst the stunning machines already booked in to attend are an Aston Martin DB4, Lamborghini Muira, Mercedes 300SL Gullwing, Ferrari F50, Porsche 959, Ford Mustang, Bugatti Veyron and many more, while the Marcos Owners’ Club, Porsche Club GB and Lamborghini Club UK are amongst the clubs which will be joining the event.
A special feature for 2015, the High End Motoring Display, held on the lawns of Palace House, will gather together some of the most remarkable cars from the last 100 years of motoring. Examples spanning every year of production, from 1915 to 2014, will form a real-life timeline, charting how performance and luxury motoring has developed during the last century.
Do you own a luxury or high performance car which you think would add to this display? Cars from the 1920s, 1940s and early 1980s are particularly welcome, please email details of your pride and joy to andy.ollerenshaw@beaulieu.co.uk for consideration.
Throughout the day, visitors will have the chance to vote for their favourite car of the show in the People’s Choice Award. The owner of the winning vehicle will be presented with a Beaulieu Trophy and an Autoglym car valeting gift, before leading a cavalcade of the most popular vehicles through the grounds.
