Auto Brunch St Ives June 2022

Due to COVID, bad weather and other commitments, it had been a while since I attend the Auto Brunch event at St. Ives showground.   March 2021 to be exact.   I finally made it back today and as usual it was a great event.   Of all the cars and coffee events in Sydney, I think this is by far the best.   There is always incredible variety at this show and today was no different.

In addition to the show, The Mercedes Club planned an event to watch the sunset and Balmoral beach and then drive over to the event.   I didn’t join them, mainly because I wanted another hour of sleep and I planned to take my Citroen DS.    It did mean there was a good contingent of MBCNSW members.  As well as the Mercedes club, there were strong showings from the Jensen Club, the Alfa club, and there were also a number of Porsche’s on display too.

As well as my DS, there was another very nice D Special in white and a rare Henri Chapron Decapotable.   This was a real one, unlike the many copies that are around the place.    It was a third nose car, which are pretty rare for the Decapotable, most of them had the second nose.   From the dashboard, it looked like a 1969 model.

I was parked next to a rare Toyota Century V12.   This is a domestic market Toyota that sits above Lexus in their range.    It is used for government officials, CEOs, the Emperor etc.   There are no Toyota badges on the car, just Century badges.   There were also a few other interesting Japanese domestic market cars on display at the show.

I was also impressed with a lovely pair of Fiat X1/9’s.   The earlier car, in orange was a real time warp.   The Auto Brunch St Ives June 2022 event was great and well worth the trip there.   Even better its the easier one of these for me to get to.
