Iconic American muscles cars, incredible race winning models and ultra-limited edition examples all form part of the show. Luxury watchmakers and a champagne bar will also be present to give you a taste of the high-life.

The collection will be gathered on the lawn of the Royal Honourable Artillery Company near Barbican from June 8 to 9.

Here at Sun Motors we've compiled a hit-list of cars you shouldn't miss.

Jaguar XKSS

The Jaguar XKSS was famously driven by Steve McQueen

Widely heralded as the world's first supercar, the XKSS was the true embodiment of a "racing car for the road".

Famously driven by Steve McQueen, the XKSS was essentially one of Jaguar's Le Mans-winning D-Types with a windscreen and a bit of extra practicality.

During the 50s there was almost nothing this fast on the road.

Porsche 911 2.7 RS

Examples of the 911 2.7  RS can fetch over £500,000

It's no secret that classic Porsche values have skyrocketed over the last 10 years, but there's one particular model that's outgrown the rest.

The Porsche 911 2.7 RS, with its ducktail spoiler, larger engine and lightweight approach is perhaps the purest 911 experience you can have.

Produced in very limited numbers, these 2.7 RS variants often command price tags of over £500,000.

Jaguar XJR-15

Jaguar XJR-15 had a top speed of 215mph

The Jaguar XJR-15 is one of the most focused road cars ever produced, having been directly derived from the Jaguar XJR-9 that won at Le Mans in 1988.

The carbon fibre tub and hi-tech racing suspension both came directly from the Le Mans racer, with a 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 450hp.

That's not too much by today's standards, but weighing just 1,050kg you could expect 0-60mph in under four seconds and a top speed of 215mph.

Singer customises each Porsche individually with the owner

Each vehicle from California-based Singer Vehicle Design is restored as a bespoke collaboration with the customer.

And this particular vehicle has its full carbon-fibre body finished in Singer Racing White with black lettering.

The car has a 3.8-litre Cosworth-developed flat-six, six-speed transmission and features the external oil and central fuel fillers.

Lexus LFA

LFA was a landmark car for Lexus

Not a name you normally associate with the world of high-end supercars, Lexus began production of the LFA in late 2010.

Only 500 were ever built, and this technological Japanese masterpiece was powered by a 4.8-litre naturally-aspirated V10 engine.

It was built around a carbon fibre reinforced polymer tub and a carbon fibre body, weighing in at just 1,480kg.

Touring Superleggera Disco Volante Spider

Only seven of this Alfa-Romeo based sportscar were built

One-of-seven to be produced, this hand-crafted car comes from coachbuilders Touring Superleggera and is based on the Alfa Romeo 8C Spider.

The design is inspired by the Alfa Romeo C52 Disco Volante of the 50s, but this modern day interpretation has a little more power thanks to a 4.7-litre V8.

Porsche 911 GT1

The GT1 is the most extreme road-going Porsche

Homologated from the car that won Le Mans in 1998, the 911 GT1 is perhaps the most extreme Porsche road car ever built.

Underneath the carbon fibre bodyshell is a 3.2-litre flat-six twin-turbocharged engine with 550hp and a slightly softer independent double wishbone suspension compared with the racing car.

Jaguar D-Type

Few cars have such a Le Mans pedigree as the D-Type

A definite legend of Le Mans, the Jaguar D-Type ‘RSF 303’ is one of the most original and successful D-Types in existence.

This car finished second in Jaguar’s legendary 1-2-3-4-6 result at the Le Mans 24 Hours race in 1957, and was widely raced by the famous Scottish team Ecurie Ecosse, whose colours it wears to this day.

The Hypercar Holy Trinity

LaFerrari will be joined by P1 and 918 in supercar showdown

The Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder together sparked the latest argument on which is the best supercar in the world.

At City Concours visitors will have the chance to decide for themselves as all three gather on the Honourable Artillery Company lawns.

Maserati Tipo 200SI

Iconic 50s Maserati tackled the famous Mille Miglia

Completed in March 1956, this Maserati 200SI was raced extensively in the 50s by its owner Guido Perella.

He competed in the 1956 Mille Miglia, where he drove for nine hours before having to retire. A couple of months later, Perella had more luck with a top-three class finish in the Targa Florio.

Tickets for City Concours start at £35 and can be purchased .
