A 1973 Citroën SM was displayed at Salon Privé on August 27, 2025 — held at the magnificent Blenheim Palace in the UK.
Inspired by brothers Andrew and David Bagley, the event has become one of the most prestigious fixtures on the international Concours circuit, this year celebrating its 20th anniversary.
Salon Privé serves as a grand stage to honour automotive history and contemporary brilliance, remaining peerless among UK events. Over two days of intense competition, the event showcases the most rigorously judged Concours in the country. Friday features a vibrant garden party, a highlight of the summer season, followed by an exhilarating final day that attracts a diverse and energetic audience.
Blenheim Palace, a masterpiece of Baroque architecture in the Oxfordshire countryside, is the principal residence of the 12th Duke of Marlborough. Built in the early 18th century, it is admired for its stunning design and gardens. It is also the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, playing a significant role in his life. Its historical and cultural importance is recognized by its UNESCO World Heritage Site status.
