Darwin – Alice Springs 2026 - The 75th Anniversary Run (02-08-2026)

Sun, 02 Aug 2026 01:00:00 GMT

We are planning a commemorative re-enactment of the 75th Anniversary of Les Taylor and Dick Rendle’s historic Darwin–Alice Springs run.

Those interested in participating are invited to register their interest by emailing owner@xkejaguar.com.

My parents, David and Edna Laird, proudly took part in the 2001 run, with David serving on the organising committee. Now aged 93, they are no longer able to undertake the journey. In their place, I—Bruce Laird—will be making the run this year alongside my son Thomas, continuing the family connection to this remarkable event.

We will depart Darwin on 2 August, driving a 1951 Jaguar, which for many represents a rare opportunity to commemorate this iconic journey. Preparations include experienced mechanical support (formerly with Bib Stillwell), Whitworth tooling, spare tyres, a dedicated support camper vehicle, and a drone operator to document the run.

We welcome all enthusiasts who wish to join us in marking this significant chapter of Australian motoring history.

Fri, 25 Sep 2026 16:00:00 GMT

JAGUAR Car Club of WA

The premier event of our 60th Anniversary celebrations will be the Presentation Dinner to be held at the Rendezvous Hotel in Scarborough on the 26th of September 2026. Come and join in for a fabulous night in beautiful surroundings and support your club at this prestigious event.

Order of Events:

This special function will be held in the beautiful Mentelle Room which overlooks the Indian ocean and will commence at 6.30pm with complementary pre dinner drinks and canapes on the Mentelle deck, weather permitting, or in the spacious area inside from the deck. After moving into the Mentelle room the evenings activities will commence including the serving of a three-course plated set menu.

The Master of Ceremony for this very special evening will be Stephen Kent and will include surprise entertainment as well as our Annual Awards presentations including the awards from the 60th anniversary car display day to be held in April. Later in the evening music will commence, this being especially selected by Ray Norton from the music we know our Jaguar members love to dance to. Surprise 'spot' prizes will be announced throughout the evening...so be warned!

Ticket Purchase:

The JCCWA will be subsidising this one-off anniversary dinner for club members, partners & friends with a price cap of $90 per head which is a significant benefit to all who attend. This also includes a door prize for one night’s accommodation, with paid overnight parking and cooked breakfast for two. To encourage early bird registration, this prize will be allocated from a ticket number draw to be held at our June general meeting.

The capacity of the dining room is limited to 130 people and tickets are already selling fast, so if you have not done so get your tickets early. They will be on sale at all general meetings with payment available by card or via PayPal through the club's website under the ‘Events’ section.

All tickets purchased before 1-June-2026 will go into a draw for an overnight stay at the Rendezvous Hotel for two people including breakfast.

Dress Code:

The theme for this year is Bling, Zing & Dazzle, which is befitting for a diamond celebration. So for Ladies and Gents, whatever floats your boat in this area...goes! Don't hold back!

Parking:

Hotel basement parking is available for dinner guests. Cost is $25 for overnight or $10 for evening only. Free parking is also available to the west of the hotel between the hotel and the beach.

Accommodation & Breakfast:

Excellent accommodation is also available at the hotel so why not stay the night and make a weekend of the event, particularly members from our South West and Great Southern registers. This gives us the opportunity to kick the event off with a get together in the bar area on Saturday afternoon for a chat and drinks at around 3.00pm.

Rooms are available with an exclusive JCCWA discount for those attending the event. Click on Accommodation to view the package.
