All British Classics Car Club Inc. Queensland

Just over 25 years ago the love of British made cars was the conduit that linked the three driving enthusiasts, John Gagen, Bill McIlroy and Jack Straughan.. Apart from the importance of belonging to a single marque Club, John felt that a ‘mixed-marque’ driving Club would give people the opportunity to use their cars more often, with a special appeal to those with concessional registration. And so, the genesis for the All British Classics Car Club was born.

As time rolled on and the Club expanded, and its reputation as a friendly, family-oriented, non competitive Car Club primarily set up for members to enjoy driving their vehicles on regular outings has grown. This multi-marque drivers Club is open to anyone who has an interest in British vehicles regardless of ownership, make, model, age or condition and including specials. ‘British vehicle’ includes any vehicle that was manufactured in or can trace its origin to, the United Kingdom. Indeed, vehicles, owned by the membership of this Club, range from Bentleys to Minis, with most marques in between represented. Laid back, informal environment, we have only one formal meeting of members per year. The Annual General Meeting, where the Management Committee are appointed for the coming year. The Committee are then entrusted with the administration of the Club, leaving members free to participate in and enjoy outings, without getting caught up in the administrative matters of running the Club. With a low membership fee of $40.00 a year, with the ability to do Special Interest Vehicle Concession Certifying Certificates, regular newsletters, monthly events and a Private Members Facebook page for members to take advantage of Impromptu Runs. Where any member can post an outing or event, quickly and easily, whether a get together for a drive( even midweek for the members lucky enough) or to just meet up for a coffee with their cars.

The Club remains as varied as the members are, ‘as indeed their different makes of cars’ at all times but we try to make the All British Classics Car Club an organisation that is known for it’s camaraderie, friendliness and simple enjoyment of driving our British cars.

If you have an interest in British vehicles and would like to socialise with like-minded enthusiasts, we would love to hear from you. Email or send a message if you would like some more information or an application form.
