40 years of NZ's Biggest Classic Car Show

On Sunday 10 February 2013 some 700 owners representing over 70 classic car clubs will gather at Ellerslie Race Course to share their enthusiasm, promote their clubs, and celebrate 4 decades.

Highlight of this annual event will be the Intermarque Concours d'Elegance Award for the country's best classic vehicle restoration, with awards also for club entries, themed club displays, and motorkhana competition. The Club display theme is titled "Forty Years of Fabulous!". If you’re a car club or commercial exhibitor targeting this affluent enthusiasts’ group, this is the show to be at. There’s already keen interest for commercial space bookings – so make sure your business or car club is part of this historic event.

Host club in 2013 is the Early Holden Club. Be there! More...

The Classic Fun Runs

Organised by the MG Car Club, this "open to all" event is one of the biggest classic driving events on the calendar!

In 2013 there will be six runs to choose from, starting at different locations, and all finishing at Vellenoweth Green in St Heliers. More...

The History

The MG Car Club launched the first Intermarque Concours d'Elegance at the sunken gardens, Cornwall Park on December 1, 1972. Then as now, the event was an inter-club affair and MG became the first winner of the Inter-Club Challenge Shield. Honours also went to Alvis, Studebaker, Jowett, Riley, and Citroen Car Clubs.

Until 1981 MG and Jaguar dominated the Cornwall Park event. Then Porsche took the Shield and moved the rapidly growing show to Ellerslie. More...

In Memory of Gary McCrystal 3.12.1943 – 31.8.2012

We remember with affection, respect and admiration Gary McCrystal who passed on after a courageous battle with cancer for several years.
Gary was passionate about classic cars and a member of the Auckland Mustang Owners Club, the Cobra Car Club and Corvette Car Club and his cars were admired by many. His involvement with those clubs led him to committee membership of the Intermarque Concours d’Elegance.
This was his third year as chair person, leading the organisation of the 2013 “40th” event. His leadership and passionate attitude to getting things done is sadly missed by all who worked with him on the Intermarque Concours D’Elegance Committees 2011-2013.

The 2013 results are now available here.
