National Rally <strong>2016</strong><br />

wonderful weekend for<br />

Mercedes-Benz owners<br />

and was a great piece<br />

of teamwork. This<br />

photo was taken on the<br />

Sea Cliff Bridge, where<br />

our Day 2, Kiama drive<br />

was scheduled and<br />

Mark Hertz’s classic<br />

W108 is featured. With<br />

the expertise of Corey<br />

Rankin, club member<br />

and<br />

professional<br />

photographer<br />

and<br />

design input of Sakura<br />

Sky Media, the cover<br />

was born.<br />

Sponsors<br />

Mercedes-Benz Australia/Pacific were our major<br />

sponsor with a very valuable and generous $10,000.<br />

Oldtimers Centre was significant cash sponsor of the<br />

Rally which we greatly appreciate.<br />

Our trusty club supporters Currans/AutoSalon (Sam<br />

Movizio), Meguiar’s (Peter Prentice) and West <strong>Star</strong> Autos<br />

(Joe Simons) chipped in with products or sponsored items<br />

and John Assarapin and Geoff Hosey made personal<br />

donations. Lesley Strauss conducted a Rocks tour.<br />

Thank you all.<br />

Calendar - Mike Fleming<br />

Mike produced an 18 month calendar of spectacular<br />

Mercedes-Benz Club cars from around Australia. A<br />

picture of a fantastic 1954 green 300S cabriolet in the<br />

Mercedes-Benz museum features on the cover and it runs<br />

from July <strong>2016</strong> to the end of 2017, so it is current.<br />

The Rally calendar was included in the show bag for<br />

all participants, as a collectible souvenir of their time in<br />

Sydney. Rally calendars are available at Club meetings for<br />

$10, or please contact mike.fleming@mbcnsw.org.au to<br />
