Reminder: Supercars At Wilton House

Join PH and friends for a super Saturday in Wiltshire

---

Exotics at Wilton House last year

It's Monday already, and that means one thing. You've got fewer than five days to tell the Missus/Mister or other S.O that you can't go shopping this Saturday because you're coming to see the Supercars at Wilton House.

If ever an event looked like being worth a couple of days in the dog house, this is it. Held for the second year running at the stately pile of Lord Pembroke in Salisbury, Wilts, organiser and PHer Jaykaybi reckons this year's Supercars at Wilton House will significantly outclass the last one - which we all reckon was a brilliant day out.

2010 should be even better!

2009 highlights in no particular order included a Bugatti Veyron, McLaren F1, Ferrari F40, 288 GTO and Enzos, Porsche Carrera GT and a Pagani Zonda, amongst the cavalcade of exotics.

Jay tells us he's pulled out all the stops to find even rarer and more exclusive machinery for 2010, and this year as well as the cars themselves there'll be local dealer displays and trade stands for your browsing pleasure.

A highlight at around 2pm is sure to be the Supercar sound-off, when all the cars will start their engines and rev-up simultaneously - music to our ears. Visitors are also recommended to bag a spot in the courtyard at the front of Wilton House for the spectacular arrival of the cars in convoy at around midday.

Garlick's 'car of show' last year

As last year, there's a free PH 'Saturday Service' which will also get you access to the trade and manufacturer stands - but not the Supercar display.

Seeing the Supercars will cost £10 per person, £5 for kids, and £25 for families (cash only) on the door, but you can also buy tickets in advance online and avoid any queues.

Proceeds from ticket sales go to the Stars Appeal Caring For Kids Campaign.

PRINT AND DISPLAY THE PH LOGO
If you want to be part of the PH Saturday Service, please print off this logo and place it in your windscreen (or wave it about) on arrival at Wilton. This will help the event marshals to direct you to the PH car park area without causing hold-ups. (You can also add yourself to the Saturday Service list here.)

Gates open at 10am, and the access is by the entrance on the A3094.

The Supercars will be on display from midday to 4pm, and the Wilton House estate closes at 5pm.

Look forward to it.. Friday is 23 celcius and sunny (5 day forecast), so hoping the week-end is the same.

That logo doesn't scale very well

But thanks anyway!

It doesn't, but you only need to flash it at the chap on the gate for a second....

Are you guys going to be needing any help? i.e. showing people where to park etc . . . More than happy to lend a hand again

[Rochester TVR]

Aghhh!!

I have to choose between going to this, the Sunday Service at the Rolls factory the weekend after or a divorce??? Apparently I can only do one!

...and somewhere Im meant to fit in a round of golf aswell!

[Fluffsri/?]

I'm looking forward to it. I went last year and the amount of very nice cars in the car park made it worthwhile LOL.

Well if the one is divorce, you can do two!

Really looking forward to this! Fingers crossed for decent weather!

I'm looking forward to it

If i'm correct as Jay has described on facebook on the google maps link below A is where the supercar display is and B is where the trade stands and the pistonheads/car clubs are with the bridge joining the two over the river.

Well worth delaying the family holiday by a day (and I'm leaving them at home on Saturday)

I've been looking forward to this years supercar show for ages and since i got the tickets i got more exited about going.

I went last year and enjoyed it and this year i'm hoping for the same, but even better.

Can't wait

Looking at last years pics, it seems that the cars are parked in sections behind rope.
So, you can't poke your nose into the cars?
Maybe I am spoilt from other shows but if you can't get up closer than that........

What shows have you been to where you can get closer than 1ft to a McLaren F1, Zonda or Enzo?
