Collegians Car Club members at the 2025 OWCA Auto Day

Yarra Valley driveWhether you’re into classic cars, modern performance machines or anything in between, our club offers a welcoming environment where all car lovers are celebrated. From scenic drives and social gatherings to car shows and community events, there’s always something exciting happening. Officially started in 2025, the club is founded on friendship and collaboration, providing its members with an opportunity to share the love of motoring.

We enjoyed a fantastic day in August with members gathering in Melbourne before setting off on a scenic drive through the Yarra Valley. Around midday, the group arrived at the historic Launching Place Hotel, a popular country pub owned by Neil Shankley (OW1982). The group were treated to a cold beer and a hearty lunch of generous pub favourites. Stories from past drives were shared, future events were planned and plenty of new friends made for a wonderful day out.
