The highly-anticipated Jaguar Lightweight E-Type and Aston Martin Valkyrie stole the show at Battersea Park during The London Motor Show.

HRH Prince Michael of Kent welcomed VIP guests and press, officially opening the show during the champagne reception from 7pm on Thursday May 4th. It was also fantastic to see Top Gear presenter and President of the Motor Show, Tiff Needell, visit our stand really excited by the Aston Martin Valkyrie.

Friday to Sunday, the event was open to members of the public and it was fantastic to see some new faces discovering the fascinating story of the E-Type and one of the 150 Aston Martin Valkyrie's produced. Our stand was serving champagne and chatting to 500 Stratstone club members, who were each treated to free tickets and Club hospitality throughout the event.

The London Motor Show was the perfect opportunity to display our must-see Jaguar Lightweight E-Type, one of only 6 specially built classic 1960s inspired race cars. It was brilliant to see spectators from across the world amazed by its history.

As its first appearance at a UK Motor Show, many car enthusiasts were also eager to hear more about the Aston Martin Valkyrie. Aston Martin Mayfair pulled out all the stops to ensure attendees took away some incredible memories.

Thank you to everyone that joined us at The London Motor Show, it was great to see such a mix of old and new faces and we hope to see you next year.
