The Mercedes-Benz Club of South Africa AGM

The Mercedes-Benz Club of South Africa AGM

Date: 2024-06-25

The Mercedes-Benz Club of South Africa (or MBCSA)held its 39th AGM (annual general meeting) and national gathering in and around Durban on the weekend of 14 to 16 June 2024.

As the only recognised club by Mercedes-Benz Classic International, the enthusiast owners association also enjoys kind support from Mercedes-Benz South Africa and its network of dealers; this most recent AGM being hosted at the amazing Umhlanga brand centre of the prestigious German brand.

Mercedes-Benz Umhlanga not only welcomed dozens of club members for Friday's AGM formalities, they also hosted associated supplier stands and a club regalia desk, while providing the use of a new GLA 200 AMG Line as well as an airport shuttle service. The very impressive multi-level showrooms of Mercedes-Benz Umhlanga were also interspersed with beautiful classic vehicles carrying the three-pointed star.

Over the years it has become MBCSA tradition to host the AGM in a different region, of which the club currently has six: Central Region (including the Northern Cape), Eastern Cape, KwaZulu Natal, Northern Region (including Gauteng), Southern Cape and Western Cape.

A further tradition is the extended weekend action added onto each AGM as "the National Gathering"; usually held each year somewhere between April and June. Each region takes great pride in showcasing their best venues, latest restaurants and most scenic drives when their turn rolls around every six years. These experiences are mixed with fancy dress parties, gymkhanas, road rallies and other fun activities, usually culminating in a gala dinner on the last night, where prize giving meets special recognition and a charity auction.
