25 Oldtimermesse
To be in touch with fellow enthusiasts, friends, and customers, we attend every year several Swiss and international salons, auctions, swap meets, and races.
For some events, we share pictures of classic motor cars that caught our eye, to complete our presence on Instagram, Threads, and YouTube.

MG Q-Type to welcome you, presented by my colleagues of the MGCC Switzerland.
Plenty of nice cars in St. Gallen, such as 1949 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS, Bentley, Austin, and Lancia.

1949 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 SS Touring Coupé, seen at the Oldtimermesse in St. Gallen a few weeks ago. If not mistaken, this stunning coachwork was styled by Carrozzeria Touring of Milan.
Touring was very popular among sporting drivers, thanks to its lightweight Superleggera body construction. This car should be from the second series of cars, i.e. boasting more pronounced flared wheel arches, accounting for a bit more of 100 pieces produced. Splendid.
Splendid Simca 1000 Rallye 2 seen at the Oldtimermesse in St. Gallen last Sunday.
If I am not mistaken, Simca offered the Rallye in 1970 with a 1118cc engine. This was replaced by the 1294cc Rallye 1 in 1972, and by the Rallye 2 in 1973 with a bit more HP. There was a restyle in 1975 with rectangular headlamps, and a Rallye 3 version was offered from December 1977.
This Rallye 2 - hopefully a genuine one - should have the 1300cc engine (actually 1294cc), two Solex carbs "double corps", four disc brakes, and the radiator in the front, the Poissy engine remaining in the back.
This really was sport. And French car producers used to be good, here. Thanks.
Despite the quite cold and grey weather, fantastic event this afternoon in St. Gallen (Oldtimermesse). The MGCC Switzerland had an amazing display with two great prewar MG.
The first one is a 1936 Q-Type and its 4-cylinder engine gives... around 120 PS... for a bit more than 800 kg... not bad at all. The second one is a 1933 MG J3, apparently with a J4 engine, and with a Shorrock supercharger C75, given around 80 PS.
Thanks to the MGCC Switzerland for having such a nice stand.
