The Citroen car club of New Zealand held it’s national rally a couple of months ago from the 23rd til the 26th of January. Based around Masterton the rally started with the ’75th Anniversary Traction tour’ ending it’s week long journey from Auckland.
Although quite a while ago, I’ve not really been able to set aside any time to write anything on this…
We went along on the Saturday for the Pride of ownership and Gymkhana event at Solway showgrounds, and in the Afternoon, a navigational trial which saw most of the cars cover around 110km around the Masterton area.
Most of the time when you go to car club days, there’s a massive turnout of newer models, however, out of around 80 cars that were entered in the ‘pride of ownership’ portion of the first day, about 70 could be seen as ‘classic’ Cits. From BX’s, right back to Post War Tractions, and everything D, 2CV, and CX in between.
Here’s a few sample pictures from the pride of ownership display, the link to the rest is at the bottom of the entry.
The rest of the photos are available to view on my photobucket account, here;

That we do man, it’s definitely worth getting out to and attending as many of these shows as possible, be they make specific or otherwise. You never know what might pop up.
