This year's Concours of Elegance is underway at Hampton Court Palace, where it is welcoming more than a thousand classic cars dating from 1896 to the present day.
Highlights of the Concours include the first ever Bentley to race at Le Mans, a 3 Litre, and the ‘Baillon Barn Find’ Maserati A6G 2000, which is making its UK debut.
There is also be a host of pre-1905 ‘veteran cars’, including the very first car to receive a speeding ticket in 1896, as well as modern supercars such as the P1 GTR and the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta.
