<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
In a break from tradition, the Salon Priv\u00e9 London Concours de Vente is designed solely for dealers to showcase cars that can actually be bought, rather than the private and firmly not for sale cars that feature at Salon Priv\u00e9 Blenheim. Presented on the pristine lawns of Royal Hospital Chelsea, the cars are also driven each day in a parade that allows guests to fully appreciate them in all their glory\u2026 and then consider purchasing them!<\/p>\n
The event is limited to 75 cars. Entries are split into the following \u2018classes\u2019, as denoted by their value: Class 1 is up to \u00a3250,000, Class 2 is between \u00a3250,000 and \u00a31 million, and Class 3 is for cars over \u00a31 million. At the end of the event, Salon Priv\u00e9 London awards the Best in Class and the ultimate prize of Prix d\u2019Honneur for the best car at the show. Royal Hospital Chelsea also presents the Chelsea Pensioners\u2019 Choice Award.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Salon-Prive-Concours-Ferrari275GTB.jpg\")

At the 2023 Salon Priv\u00e9 London Concours de Vente, London\u2019s Joe Macari will show a stunning Ferrari 275 GTB\/6C, an original 1966 UK long-nose car. The 275 was the final Pininfarina design to be supervised by Pinin himself, and was the first road car to feature independent rear suspension with double wishbones and coil springs \u2013 a setup inspired by the 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning 250 LM racer. This storied model has a vast history file and is highly collectable: it is one of just six right-hand drive six-carburettor alloy-bodied 275 GTBs, and one of just two delivered new to the UK. Joe Macari calls it surely one of the best examples of the 275 GTB ever produced.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Salon-Prive-Concours-AstonDB24Vignale.jpg\")
<\/a>1954 Aston Martin DB2\/4 Vignale<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n1954 Aston Martin DB2\/4 Vignale<\/h3>\n
Aston Workshop will be featuring a similarly rare 1954 Aston Martin DB2\/4 Vignale, which has bespoke body styling and a unique interior specification. It was originally commissioned by King Baudouin of Belgium, and has recently been fully restored by Aston Workshop. The DB2 was the first Aston Martin to wear new owner David Brown\u2019s initials; this later DB2\/4 had +2 seating and enhanced performance. Only 1,200 DB2s were built \u2013 and just 12 left-hand drive DB2\/4 rolling chassis were delivered to period Italian and Swiss coachbuilders. Of these 12, Vignale of Turin received two: this car is the sole surviving example. Like all Concours de Vente cars, it can be bought at Salon Priv\u00e9 London; it\u2019s on sale for \u00a33.65 million.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Salon-Prive-Concours-1970-porsche-9146gt-werks-car.jpg\")

Export 56 will be showcasing a Porsche 914\/6 GT competition car that\u2019s one of the earliest Porsche \u2018Factory Werks\u2019 test cars. Built in late 1970, the left-hand drive Signal Orange machine is a genuine matching numbers car certified as first owned by Porsche AG. As the name suggests, it boasts a flat-six engine, and is one of 12 special 914\/6 GTs built for the factory racing department \u2013 which included three Rally Monte Carlo cars. Throughout its life, this car has had just three owners from new, and was accurately resorted back to factory GT specification in 2012. It is track-prepared, comes with all the necessary FIA papers, and is eligible for the most prestigious events in the world.

<\/a>1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda<\/h3>\n
Howard Wise Cars has a delightful and attainable 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda to showcase at the 2023 Concours de Vente. A right-hand drive car with low mileage, it\u2019s had just one family owner since new, and is unrestored, with the original seats and interior wooden features. Driving it in London will be painless, thanks to an automatic transmission and power steering. Boasting a full history file, it\u2019s a genuine time-warp vehicle \u2013 and has never before been advertised for sale. It could be yours at the Salon Priv\u00e9 London Concours de Vente for \u00a3199,995.<\/p>\n
