Thomo260 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Just got my newsletter from the Nissan Car Club and they have been invited to the annual Nissan Datsun Sports Owners Club Show and Shine (Concours d' Elegance). They have also invited the Sports Roadsters Club, Classic Skylines and Prince Skyline Register. Maybe AusZcar could get an invite aswell, as this is an opportunity for members of all clubs to display thier vehicles and promote their particular club. Event details: Sunday November 15th 2009 9.30am to 3.00pm at New Quay- Docklands Entry $5 per vehicle I have contact details if you like?

620Z Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We (Auszcar) have a big BBQ and car display booked in 5/12/09 for all the Zed owners in Melbourne. Some might even travel from interstate this year. Depends on whether you like showing the car off to the mass's or just other like minded enthusiasts. Having said that I dare say some members will rock up to the Docklands. But if you have to decided between one or the other we are aiming for more than 26 Zeds this year. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Zedman240® Posted October 6, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 6, 2009 One good thing about the Docklands show and shine if you are thinking about selling your zed, that is a good place to advertise.. Sold a zed of mine at Southbank a few years ago; was a crappy rainy day to boot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvemfast Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hoping to have my car ready for this, would be nice to get in a show before I hit the track and get stonechips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedevan Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 i'll mark it in my calander to come down and have a look my can't won't be there though (ofcourse...) might have a panel thats been painted with a roller for anyone to look at who's interested (more likely to bring it to the bbq, and ride to docklands if the weather is nice) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

260Coupe Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Guys Unfortunately due to public liability constraints as stipulated by Melb City Council and ING (Docklands management) , the NDSOC is restricted to inviting only car clubs and its financial members covered by their respective club's PL Insurance.

620Z Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Having said that I think some people on this forum are members of the NDSOC or another. But if not then I guess no car. :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvemfast Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Uhmm, I will just shut up right now! Don't let one bad experience put you off what is a great club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reverendzed Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 It wasn't a comment related to any experience Simon it was more about the exclusivity factor, I realise there is protocol hence the fact I said I'll shut up...and now I will.

260Coupe Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Guys There is no "exclusivity" here , the MCC and ING property management clearly state that all attendees must be covered under their respective club's Public Liability ($10million), hence why the NDSOC was restricted to only inviting incorporated car clubs with financial members covered by the club's PLI............this is now the norm for all public space displays within the City of Melb. As such any financial members of NDSOC, NCCA, CSA or DSRCV are welcome to attend, if AusZcar was to incorporate and take up PLI then of course all would be invited. My hands are tied..............or you could become a financial member of any one of the invited clubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.A.R. Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Dave, Alan is quite correct. PLI is sadly a necessary evil these days... FWIW Alan are non NDSOC, NCCA, CSA, DSRCV people allowed to attend in a Zed as long as they are financial members of an Inc. Car Club under the AOMC banner?

reverendzed Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Sorry guys...must be the fact that i've now been up 46 hours without sleep and jetlagged! the exclusivity I was referring to was the Public Liability and red tape that seems to hinder just about everything...we are chained to the 'man' and there's litlle we can do about it! In no way was I referring to NDSOC or any other club. Rev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris240 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 insurances are annoying but neccesary... I believe "we" may be able to obtain PL insurance for one off events..it should be fairly easy for things like car shows which are static events.. Or we may be able to obtain roaming cover, which may cover us for say 10 events at different locations/states for a 1 year period.. Next time Im talking with our work insurance brokers ,I'll ask them what the "go" is.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoota G Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 It looks like i'll be driving one of Dalee's Zeds down to this event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
620Z Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Hey Chris keep us or me posted if you get some advise on that "Temporary" PL Cover. I might ask our broker as well. But I would be surprised if it was available. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
260Coupe Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Without trying to create a sh*tstorm of controversy The other obvious option open to any body wanting to display their Zed is to join the NDSOC on the day ......... ........ you will then be eligible for trophies and be covered under the club's PLI and have membership until Dec 2010.

luvemfast Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Don't bring logic into it Alan But if some people haven't joined NDSOC by now, I doubt they ever will? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zedevan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I went along with a couple of mates around 2pm, and while i didn't see anyone from the club i did see the cars, looked great! is technoz's anyone on here? my only disapointment was the lack of atleast one of each GTR, particually r35, and was surprised by the lack of any 350z's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
