George Motor Show 2008 -  Contributed  by Johann du Toit

"Well, I took the plunge and exhibited the Kappa at the George Show..... thinking I'd be the sole representative of the marque! Surprise, surprise, in rolled the Series ll Fulvia of fellow Club member Brian Harris, all the way from East London (600km).

So how about that as encouragement for members of the Cape Lancia Club? The show was teriffic, as ever...this time the weather too. I cannot emphasize strongly enough the pleasure of attending.... the ambience, meeting other enthusiasts, seeing weird & wonderful vehicles, enjoying the food, and last but not least, taking a break in the wonderful Garden Route area!

There were vehicles from ancient Crankhandle Club types, through to a Mercedes hearse/stretch limo running on 4 rear wheels because of it's length (the limo section even had champagne glasses?!). Hotrods & motorcycles, over 100 Mercedes Benz’s and around 1000 vehicles in total.

One of the weirdest was an early '50's FIAT Topolino, widened drastically and fitted with a Ford V6 motor 8-)  Most of these vehicles are never seen in the Cape... another reason for attending. So.... how about it nextyear?"

A great turnout despite cold weather and conflicting with the rugby.  Wonderful to see so many new members and great enthusiasm and discussion around a potential clubhouse for the club
