On Saturday 11 April, Sloane Street will do something it has never done before: welcome a concours d’élégance of 25 exceptional classic cars and their contemporary counterparts to the Street, ahead of the wider Salon Privé events unfolding at the Royal Hospital Chelsea from 16–18 April.

Framed by newly widened pavements, world-class flagships, and a backdrop that would make most motor shows weep with envy, the display runs along the Street between Harriet Street and Cadogan Place — or between Louis Vuitton and Hermès, for those who navigate best by luxury landmarks.

The curation is a serious one. Even those whose pulses are not raised by the seductive baseline hum of a supercar will be impressed by the Parc Fermé of Salon Privé on Sloane Street.

Steve Nichols — the automotive legend best known for designing arguably the most successful Grand Prix car of all time, the 1988 McLaren-Honda MP4/4 — will present the N1A: a car with the debonair good looks of a 1960s automobile and the 730-horsepower performance of what Car and Driver calls a “street-legal machine”. 

Another genteel chassis housing a beast of an engine is Halcyon Cars’ remastered 1970s Rolls-Royce Corniche, transformed into a 500-horsepower, 800-volt fully electric luxury convertible — one of only 60, crafted over more than 2,000 hours of meticulous work.

Former racer Joe Macari brings a trifecta that amounts to a small fever dream: a Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder, a McLaren F1 GTR, and a Maserati MC12 GT1. A 1961 Jaguar E-Type 3.8 Flat Floor Roadster, presented by DD Classics, takes up residence at the entrance to the Jumeirah Carlton Tower — which is, it should be said, exactly where a 1961 Jaguar E-Type belongs.

The display concludes with judging by a panel of experts, lending proceedings a pleasingly competitive edge. The whole thing coincides neatly with the Street’s latest openings — Roksanda and ERDEM among them — for those who prefer their horsepower with a side of new-season fashion.

The Salon Privé Sloane Street concours will take place on Saturday, 11 April 2026, 11am–5pm, along Sloane Street between Harriet Street and Cadogan Place. Free to attend, and considerably more interesting than your average Saturday.
