The Classic Motor Show thrills Petrolheads in Knysna
The 5th annual prestigious Knysna motor show took place on the 1st of May 2016 and has grown tremendously in popularity.
The Garden Route Motor Club decided to host the Motor Show on the Sunday to allow out of town participants and the public to visit Knysna and enjoy the long week-end. It was estimated that around 5000 visitors had the pleasure of perusing through the amazing display.
The event was held on the Knysna Sports Grounds, which was teeming with folk from all over the country – all transfixed by the various cars on show.
All the cars were classified accordingly:
- Classic cars with a preference towards sports cars
- Modern potential classic cars, sports and super cars
- Vintage and veteran cars and post vintage cars built prior to 1940.
- Motorcycles – vintage, veteran and classic racing and road motorcycles.
Over the past 5 years the classic motor show has grown subsequently and is now being recognised as one of SA’s premier motor shows. This event attracts many of the best 300 to 400 cars and motorcycles in South Africa.
The objective for 2016 was to lift the standard, thus providing an opportunity for the owners of high quality unique cars and motorcycles to be part of the events display. This ensured the motor show was about quality and not volume.
To ensure that this vision was realised all the cars and motor cycles that were displayed, were personally invited and selected.
