Vintage cars show kicks off in London (8)

The third annual Concours of Elegance took place on September 5-7, 2014 at the Hampton Court Palace, a royal palace situated on the Thames in London.

A total of 60 automobiles from around the world graced the Fountain Gardens on the East side of the historic Hampton Court Palace. Some 10,000 guests poured through the gates of Henry VIII’s sumptuous Thames-side palace to feast their eyes on many cars that had never been publicly seen in the UK.

Hampton Court Palace is a royal palace in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, Greater London, in the historic county of Middlesex, and within the postal town East Molesey, Surrey. It has not been inhabited by the British Royal Family since the 18th century. The palace is 11.7 miles (18.8 kilometers) south west of Charing Cross and upstream of central London on the River Thames.
