The heartwarming scenes are set to captivate audiences as Britain’s Got Talent’s audition rounds continue, with acts vying for a coveted spot in the live semi-finals.
This magical moment comes as no surprise from Simon, who is known not only for his discerning eye as a judge but also for his passion for cars.
Last May, he flaunted his impressive £230,000 fleet of electric vehicles, including the eye-catching Volkswagen ID.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge revealed, in a post on social media, all of the fun names he’s given to his electric vehicles, in the caption alongside.
Simon penned: “Please meet (from left to right) Buzz, Mouse and Flea and my bike called Spitz. All are electric, including my bike. And all are brilliant to drive/ride!”
Buzz, the bespoke Mini eMastered dubbed Mouse, and the zippy Abarth 500e named Flea.
Simon’s love for cars is as eclectic as it is extensive, with each vehicle bearing a unique name and personality.
From the sleek lines of the Volkswagen ID, Buzz, to the nostalgic charm of the Mini eMastered, Simon’s collection reflects his diverse tastes and unwavering passion for the road.
When his Mini eMastered was finally delivered to him in October 2023, Simon said: “This has always been my dream car. It was on my wish list; one day I wanted to have a classic Mini. Then I read about this company, and I thought, I’ve got to have one of those.
The latest episode of Britain’s Got Talent will feature a mind-blowing reunion with Simon Cowell’s beloved classic sports car, after three decades.
In what promises to be a moment of pure magic, Britain’s Got Talent viewers are in for a treat as a magician wows the judges, particularly Simon Cowell, with a jaw-dropping stunt involving the reunion of Simon with his long-lost love—his vintage sports car.
Set to air this Sunday, the scene unfolds as magician Trixy, an electrical engineer and father of two, pledges to create a ‘magical moment in time’ during his act.
Borrowing the newest BGT judge Bruno Tonioli’s watch, Trixy delves into his mesmerising trick using 50 photographs from Simon’s life.
Among the snapshots is an image of Simon’s beloved 1971 Triumph TR6, a vintage red sports car that holds a special place in the media mogul’s heart.
Simon can’t help but express his fondness for the car, admitting: “That’s one of my favourite ever cars.”
Little does he know that the real surprise is yet to come.
As the act unfolds, Simon is led outside the London Palladium theatre, where he’s met with a heart-stopping sight—the vintage Triumph TR6 parked on the red carpet, waiting for him.
The shock and joy on Simon’s face are palpable as he rushes to embrace the beloved vehicle, even going so far as to plant a kiss on its bonnet.
“I have to say, of all the cars I’ve ever had in my life, this is my favourite, this is a keeper.
“When I went to the factory, you could tell that every single person had really given their heart and soul into this, there’s so much passion behind it… you know this car has character.”
But it’s not just about the cars; it’s about the memories and experiences they evoke.
For Simon, the Mini eMastered holds a special place in his heart, reminiscent of the Lotus Esprit Turbo from the 007 film For Your Eyes Only.
He also shared how his environmentally conscious son Eric, whom he shares with fiancée Lauren Silverman, played a pivotal role in transforming his perspective on climate change.
During last year’s Britain’s Got Talent auditions, Simon revealed to The Mirror: “My son is really passionate about climate change. He’s been educating me a lot lately. He even goes to the beaches to clean them up. I believe it’s time for us all to take action. That’s why I recently purchased a Tesla.”
In addition to his Tesla, Simon’s impressive car collection is rumoured to include a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, a Jaguar Eagle Speedster, and a Bugatti Veyron.
So, buckle up and get ready for an unforgettable ride as Britain’s Got Talent delivers another dose of magic, mystery, and heartwarming moments this Sunday night.
