Join Fuel the Passion for the Aston Martin Owners Club Spring Concours 2026, held within the magnificent grounds of Alnwick Castle in Northumberland.
Set against one of Britain’s most spectacular historic backdrops, the AMOC Spring Concours brought together an exceptional collection of classic and modern Aston Martins for an unforgettable celebration of the marque. A remarkable gathering of Aston Martins. One of Britain’s most magnificent castles and privileged access behind the scenes of an Aston Martin Owners Club concours.
Join me at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland for the 2026 AMOC Spring Concours, where an extraordinary selection of Aston Martins assembled within the historic castle grounds. From a 1932 Aston Martin LM9 with genuine Le Mans history to a DB6 driven from Munich, a beautifully presented Cygnet, modern Vantages, a V12 DB11, a DB6 Vantage Volante and a rare first-generation Vanquish S, this was a celebration of Aston Martin across the generations.
I was also kindly granted access to the judges’ briefing before the concours began, offering a fascinating insight into the judging process, the importance of originality and the extraordinary level of preparation required from owners entering their cars. Throughout the film, I speak to owners about their cars, the journeys they have undertaken, their concours preparations and the experiences that make Aston Martin ownership so special.
We also meet an experienced international concours judge, hear reflections from former AMOC President Diana, Viscountess Downe, and discover the remarkable history of LM9, a car built for Le Mans in 1932 before returning in 1933 to finish first in class and fifth overall. This was much more than a display of immaculately prepared cars. It was a day about history, preservation, driving, friendship and the people whose passion keeps these extraordinary machines on the road.
A huge thank you to the Aston Martin Owners Club, the concours organisers, judges, volunteers and every owner who generously allowed me to film and share the story of their car. Thank you also to the Percy family and Alnwick Castle for allowing this remarkable gathering to take place within such spectacular surroundings.
