Mercedes-Benz Car Club of WA: A Proud Heritage and Strong Future
For over 65 years, the Mercedes-Benz Car Club of WA has been the official home for Mercedes-Benz enthusiasts in Western Australia. As the only officially recognised Mercedes-Benz Club in WA, we have a rich history of celebrating the marque’s legendary craftsmanship, innovation, and heritage.
Founded in 1960, the club started with a small group of dedicated owners who shared a vision to unite enthusiasts. Their first gathering at Brisbane Street Service Station in North Perth featured iconic models like the W180 and W220, setting the foundation for a passionate and enduring community.
In 1962, Daimler-Benz AG officially recognised the club, granting permission to use the three-pointed star in our emblem. This recognition strengthened ties with the company and affirmed our commitment to fostering Mercedes-Benz enthusiasm while maintaining our non-profit status. Western Australia was the first Australian state to embrace this incredible legacy, making our club one of the most historic global affiliates of the Mercedes-Benz marque, alongside those in the USA and UK.
From our first rally to Mundaring Weir in 1960 to today’s autobahn-style drives, exclusive events, and tailored chapter experiences, our club continues to honour the brand’s past while embracing its exciting future.
As part of a global Mercedes-Benz network, we proudly connect with fellow clubs across Australia and worldwide, celebrating our shared passion through international events and National Rallies. Our club’s long-standing legacy is recognised globally, with strong historic ties to Mercedes-Benz Germany’s design and development teams. These deep connections ensure that our members remain engaged with both the brand’s storied heritage and its evolving future.
