About Mercedes-Benz
Club of NSW
Dear Readers,
As custodians of the Mercedes-Benz
brand in NSW, our Club is a not for
profit organisation run by enthusiasts for
enthusiasts of Mercedes-Benz vehicles,
with support from dealerships.
The Mercedes-Benz Club of NSW was
founded on January 29th 1972 at East
Linfield by a group of nine enthusiasts
sharing a common interest in this wonderful
marque, and was incorporated under the
NSW Associations Act in 1990.
The first Club event was a picnic held on
a Sunday, 6th February 1972. Our Club
is a member of the Mercedes-Benz Club
Management, established to promote and
assist Mercedes-Benz Clubs globally.
Today, our members and the Club have
grown to include drive days, social events,
tours, technical workshops, cocktail
functions, dealer events and our prestige
annual Concours d’Elegance in September.
Our Club members are owners and
admirers of all types of Mercedes-Benz
vehicles, from vintage models circa 1915,
through all the classic vehicles in the
1940s, 50’s and 60’s right up to today’s
high performance Mercedes-AMG cars.
As well as running our own NSW based
events, we are involved with other
Mercedes-Benz Clubs across Australia,
holding exciting interstate tours and events
for members.
The Mercedes-Benz Club National
Rally is held in a host capital city
every two years, where interstate
Club members gather for a week of
Mercedes-Benz social, car events,
tours and car displays. This year it was
our turn to host it in Sydney, which
turned out to be a very successful and
enjoyable event.
Our website mbcnsw.org.au is being
upgraded to include modern Mercedes-
Benz and Mercedes-AMG information
and events. If you own a Mercedes-AMG,
please come forward and provide support
for the Club with these vehicles, as we
need to connect with new members with
these cars through digital media.
We post to facebook.com/mercedes.
nswclub.
Our Club is a fun, friendly, knowledgeable
and entertaining place to enjoy together
with your modern or classic Mercedes-
Benz.
We welcome new members and look
forward to seeing you and our existing
members throughout the year at various
fun events and social functions. Please join
us and enjoy.
Yours sincerely,
Mercedes-Benz Club of NSW
