The mysterious helmet-wearing figure The Stig, from BBC’s Top Gear, is set to make an appearance at Beaulieu Supercar Weekend this summer.
The Stig returns to the Demonstration Run to show off some impressive driving skills on August 3 and 4.
The Demonstration Runs are always a fan favourite for those attending one of the biggest supercar shows on the South Coast as they get to witness some of the most desirable supercars in action as their acceleration, handling and breaking are showcased along Beaulieu’s Chestnut Avenue.
This gripping test of man and machine never fails to gather a crowd.

Delighted fans will also have the opportunity to take their own photographs as part of a free meet and greet with The Stig over the course of the two-day event.
Supercar enthusiasts will be thrilled to learn that the extraordinary Koenigsegg Agera S ‘Green Goblin’ will be making an appearance at this year’s show.
Generating 1,030 BHP and 811 lb-ft of torque, this rare gem, one of only five built, is bound to attract attention from admiring spectators on the lawns of Palace House, which will be home to a Prestige & Hypercar display this year.
Also taking its place among the dazzling line-up is a Pagani Huayra Roadster, the last one of only 100 built, as well as a striking Prodrive P25, a recreation of the iconic Subura Impreza and one of only twenty five in existence.

All manner of astonishing supercars will be filling the showground and, the Supercar Sound-off is an opportunity for supercar owners to demonstrate the roar of their car’s engine as they compete for the loudest cheer.
Car club displays always play a major role in the show, and this year, owners of a wide variety of supercars will drive their prized vehicles into the Beaulieu parkland.
Attendees will also be able to enjoy all that Beaulieu has to offer. Visit the award-winning National Motor Museum for an outstanding collection of motoring memorabilia as well as the popular World of Top Gear.
Make sure to stroll around the medieval Beaulieu Abbey and grounds and gardens, plus explore the beautiful Palace House, the ancestral home of the Montagu family.
