Classic cars line up

NOOSA is set to welcome hundreds of motoring enthusiasts this weekend for the annual Noosa Beach Classic Car Show.
Now considered one of East Coast Australia’s finest all-makes car show, it will feature more than 200 of the most beautiful and timeless vehicles.
Organisers say there will be more than $10 million in cars assembled in Noosa Lions Park this weekend.
Getting ready to get the show off to a flying start is Noosa Beach Car Club member Peter Rayment.
Having owned his beautiful 1948 MG-TC sports car for more than 50 years, Peter took Wayne Hoens from the Tewantin Community Bank branch of Bendigo Bank for a spin to feel the wind through his hair this week.
Bendigo Bank has come on as a major sponsor of the club and with its well-known reputation for giving back to our community.
Wayne said he sees sponsorship of the 27th annual show as a great fit.
“I have to say that sitting next to Peter in that classic car made me feel young all over again. It’s obvious that Peter puts a lot of love and care into his pride and joy, as do so many other car club members into their vehicles ,” Wayne said.
“This year’s show is going to be fantastic, and I’m thrilled the Tewantin Community Bank branch has helped bring these beautiful cars and their very passionate owners to a whole new audience this Sunday,” he added.
In what should be a real highlight of the show, the Marque of the Year for 2015 will be Jaguar and the show will be hosting the Jaguar Drivers Club of Queensland.
Along with Bendigo Bank, other major sponsors are: Shannons, Pacific Jaguar, The Reef Hotel, Autobarn Noosa, Australian Off-Road, Noosa Civic, Penrite, Noosa Village Jewellers and RACV Resort Noosa.
The Noosa Beach Classic Car Show is open to all ages and the Marque of the Year will be Jaguar with the Jaguar Drivers Club of Queensland. Gates open at 9am on 4 October and the show runs until 3pm. Spectator entry to the show is $10 and children under 14 years is free. All proceeds go to a number of local charities.
