The final SentiMETAL Gathering of 2024 will take place on Sunday, December the 8th, at the spectacular Lourensford Estate, in partnership with Museo Della Passione.
"It's time to close off 2024 in style," says Cars.co.za Special Projects manager, Hannes Oosthuizen. "Following the success of previous events, Lourensford Estate will again host the province's coolest cars for a day of petrolheaded camaraderie."
The SentiMETAL Gathering is similar to traditional "cars-'n-coffee" meets but generally attracts a larger and more diverse crowd of vehicles. "What makes SentiMETAL Gatherings so special is the diversity - attendees keep their eyes on the entrance to catch a sight of what type of car might arrive next, because you're never quite sure until the actual day what the line-up will be," explains Oosthuizen.
"We can accommodate around 120 cars at this event, and I'd like to emphasise that although this is a classic car meet, we also include recognised modern classics."
Lourensford Estate is perfectly suited to this type of car meet, with two lovely large lawns as the display area, and loads of food and beverage options at the Market next door. The SentiMETAL merchandise store will also be there on the day, allowing enthusiasts to stock up on cool apparel, model cars, limited-edition prints and more.
The Museo Della Passione, located on the Lourensford Estate grounds, and of which you can read more here, will also be welcoming visitors. Note that entry into the museum, which houses a mouthwatering display of cars, is not free and a ticket can be purchased on the day.
