Motoclassica in October
Australia’s premier automotive exhibition for rare and exotic, historic, vintage, veteran, classic and collectable cars and motorcycles of international significance, Motorclassica, has been confirmed for 24-26 October 2014. The venue will again be Melbourne’s magnificent 19th century Royal Exhibition Building. “Although we are only in our fifth year, what’s gratifying is that the event has reach far beyond Melbourne .We are seeing significant visitor numbers from overseas and interstate, as Motorclassica has become the ‘must do’ event for the collector car and motorcycle community,” Paul Mathers, Motorclassica Event Director said.
Motorclassica 2014 is anticipated to feature more than 100 cars and 50 motorcycles, and over 200 more each day in the surrounding grounds. Celebrated marques this year will include Italian icon Maserati, whose 100th anniversary has prompted a special display of 20 incredible cars telling its story. Recognising one of motoring’s most historical achievements 50 years ago, Motorclassica will pay homage to Donald Campbell’s dual World Land Speed and Water Speed records set right here in Australia in Bluebird CN7 and K7. “We have sourced some display pieces, memorabilia and film footage of truly historic significance from around the world, as tribute to Donald Campbell and Bluebird, and we also plan to make some very exciting announcements around this celebration later in the year,” Paul Mathers said. The 2014 Motorclassica is to be held at Melbourne’s Royal Exhibition Building from October 24-26. Further info at... www.motorclassica.com.au
