Hi all,

Many of you were disappointed when we had to cancel the Grand Display of French Cars back in July due to the Brisbane City Council rescinding our permission to use the park after the extended wet weather we experienced at the time and the development of the site for the Olympics.  You were not alone; our committee has organised this event for three years in a row only to have to cancel close to the date.  Well, we didn’t give up and the search for an alternative location went on, and now we have one, for this year at least, and it is an all-weather location with the display cars under cover.

Save the date, Sunday 16 October, 8:30 am to 3 pm.  The location is the Distillery Road Markets, Eagleby.  Please spread the word and the attached flyer. More details to follow.

Please note, the cost per vehicle, by necessity, has had to be increased to $15.  DRM is not charging us substantially more than BCC has in the past but there are other expenses to cover. Had we rescheduled in a BCC park, their costs have risen very substantially from previous years so that cost would have to have been passed on. We don’t make money out of running this event and the cost per vehicle has been stagnant for many years.
