Beaulieu Gears Up For Bank Holiday Supercar Festival

BEAULIEU’S 2014 Supercar Showdown is gearing up for an action packed show on Bank Holiday Monday, 25 August, when this popular event will be welcoming supercars into the National Motor Museum’s picturesque parkland for a day of motoring action.

Now in its eighth year, two hundred high-performance supercars are booked in for the event including a Lamborghini Aventador, Alfa Romeo 8C, Ferrari 458 Speciale, Jaguar XJ220 S, McLaren 12C and a Bugatti Veyron.

A number of car clubs and dealerships will also be in attendance, including the Ford UK Heritage collection, with their Ford Supervan, Porsche Club GB, Westover Group, Morgan Motor Co. Meridien Group and the Aston Martin and Lamborghini Owners’ Clubs.

Cars will be put through their paces on the Demonstration Run, giving visitors a view of the supercars thundering through the picturesque parklands surrounding the museum.

Visitors will also be able to vote for their favourite supercar in the People’s Choice Award. In the afternoon, the top seven supercars will take part in a cavalcade through the grounds for the presentation ceremony.

Supercar Showdown event tickets include entry to the whole Beaulieu attraction, featuring the National Motor Museum with two exciting new displays, the newly updated World of Top Gear and On Screen Cars exhibitions.
