British Invasion: Hot Rides to Take Over Beaulieu Supercar Weekend

Over 500 incredible rides expected at U.K.’s National Motor Museum in August.

One of the most exciting car shows this summer is the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend in England. The event features some of the most exclusive cars, so we anticipate a lot of rare, classic, and custom Benzes to be making jaws drop on the grounds of the National Motor Museum.

There will be over 500 cars participating, representing marques such as Mercedes, McLaren, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Jaguar, and so many more. Supercar manufacturers will be on hand to show off and showcase their latest and most enticing models.

This car show is all about the action. Attendees get to enjoy these exquisite rides showing off their chops in demonstration runs, which take place twice daily. The supercar sound-offs will give attendees a symphonic experience as cars go head-to-head to determine the best exhaust note.

Jaguar will be have its XE SV Project 8 on hand, a hand-built performance saloon car with a supercharged V8 engine that produces 600 hp. The Aston Martin Owners Club will bring more than 100 Aston Martins at the event, including the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera TAG Heuer, one of only 50 built. Club Marcos International will celebrate 60 years showing a special line-up from the firm’s fascinating back catalog.

If you are in the U.K. and interested in attending, or having your Benz take part in the fun, check out the Beaulieu Supercar Weekend website and follow the action on Instagram.
