the car’s the star two shows for motorheads within a week

hua hin, THAILAND The annual Hua Hin vintage car show, this year called the ‘Hua Hin Automobile Concours 2012’, takes place from next Friday 14th December through to Sunday 16th December, but is preceded by an event that started yesterday (Thursday 6th December) the 2012 Hua Hin Motor Show, in what is a week to savour for motoring enthusiasts. The Motor Show is taking place at Centennial Park, which is just after the flyover south of the town near Soi 112; it runs until Monday 10th December and includes a number of special events (most notably what seems like a staple of all Thai car shows, the ‘Sexy Car Wash’!) as well as new model cars on display. The vintage car parade is a well established event and this year marks a decade of proud owners showing off their prized automobiles. It is being organised by Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin (better known locally as the Sofitel) in cooperation with Hua Hin Municipality and with the support of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, and other five-star hotels in Hua Hin. Some of the proceeds generated from the event will be donated to the Chaipattana Foundation. Among the many vintage cars that will take part will be Police General Niyom Karnjanawat’s Hub Mobile 1914, the only one in Asia. Sawad Hohrungrueng will present his Mercedes Benz 300 SL Roadster 1955, Pot Vijittanont his Mercedes Benz 300 SL Gull-wing 1955, Witthawat SawadChutoh his Ferrari Dino 246 GTS 1974. Fifty classic and vintage cars valued at around 300 million baht will take part in the parade which will also feature period costumes and a car contest. There will also be a jazz concert on the beach on Saturday, 15 December, and a fun-filled programme of music and dining, taking place at the Centara Grand Beach Resort. ORDER NOW FOR CHRISTMAS!
