Whether you already own your own McLaren or not, it’s always fun to test-drive someone else’s. That’s the idea behind the 11th annual Salon Privé’s three-day test-drive and passenger ride-along event, taking place at Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England, from September 1-3. Who knows? You might even get the itch to buy your own supercar. (That’s sort of the idea behind it.)

“So what about the hardware?” you ask. Pretty much every high-end ride will be available for testing, including the Lamborghini Huracán, Abarth 124 Spider, Morgan EV3, Bentley Bentayga, and BMW i8, just to name a few. Countless other hypercars and supercars will be on display and available to test-drive from all the major brands.

“Putting customers behind the wheel at a prestigious event like Salon Privé is an amazing opportunity for guests to experience a Bentley first hand,” said Bentley’s head of business in Birmingham (U.K.), Mark Hudson. We strongly concur.

Each day includes a series of events, luxury meals, and experiences. Learn more about the three-day affair here. Tickets are still on sale here. Take a visual tour of some of the luxury rides you could drive away in below.
