Organized by the International Automobile Federation, the National Classic Tour dates back to 2001. The Tour is open for cars of all makes built between 1930 and 1965. This year's entrants originated from Belgium, France, Luxemburg and the UK.
'I am very proud to have brought my rally to this prestigious manufacturing plant in such a beautiful location. I am also pleased to provide our enthusiasts with a tour that salutes Rolls-Royce for everything that the company has done for the British motor industry, and that celebrates the magnificent history of our European neighbor, Jacques Bruyns, tour organiser, stated.
We feel very privileged to support this unique journey to the place where the heart of Rolls-Royce beats, in particular as the Spirit of Ecstasy is celebrating her 100th anniversary this year, Stephane Sertang, Dealer Principal of the Ginion Group, sole Rolls-Royce Motor Cars dealer in Belgium said.
I would like to take the opportunity to thank the participants of the National Classic Tour for taking time to visit us here at Rolls-Royce, and to celebrate their endeavour, Ashley Andrew, Regional Director Europe and South Africa stated welcoming the car enthusiasts from Belgium.
