We will have a Mercedes Club display, a German beer garden with some cars on display! Come along to check out the club entries in the Concours d’Elegance and support the club display. And maybe have a sneaky look at some other car marques.

There will be a working bee on Saturday 11 February to help prepare the Mercedes entries for the Concours events (contact Daryl Jeffery [email protected] or 0274976366).

The Ellerslie organising committee are also looking for volunteers to help out on the day. Please contact Barb Lokes.
