SOL CCC 20th Anniversary Year Christmas Party

The SOL Classic Car Club – in its 20th Anniversary year – held their Christmas party by joining the JAG Enthusiasts Club at the Green Label restaurant at the El Chapparal Golf Clubhouse. It is our favorite restaurant and the management has always prepared something special for us.

An excellent choice of high quality food was enjoyed by all, in a happy seasonal atmosphere with much fun, merriment and hours of dancing to the great singing of Nuria Lima.

It was fabulous to see racing personality Win Percy at the party. His motor racing career is legendary having spanned 40 years worldwide until a career ending injury in 2002. He won multiple British championships in the 1980s, then major events in Australia – both driving and running teams for Tom Walkinshaw – in many different Mazdas, Datsuns, Holdens and Jaguars. His Jaguar escapades included the 24 Hours of Le Mans races and 4 wins at the first 24 Hour Le Mans Classic meeting in a 1950`s Jaguar D Type.

Both clubs wish all members, friends and families a happy and healthy 2025.
