Last week we hosted 2 days of drive days at the extraordinary Levantine Hill Winery. Our guests were taken on a convoy across Melbourne’s picturesque Yarra Valley roads were they embraced the scenic country side and had driven on thrilling alpine roads through a rainforest surrounded by stunning mountain ash trees. This was followed by an indulgent lunch at Levantine Hill Estate were guests enjoyed a Mediterranean inspired menu surrounded by picturesque views of the estate. These were 2 extraordinary drive day experiences that showcased our new model vehicles and allowed our guests to comfortably experience them as they pleased.

Sunday 28th March 2021 marked another significant and successful drive day for the Bentley Drivers Club Victoria. The Chairman's Run has been held annually for a few years now. This year's run was even more popular than previous and commenced at BP Calder Park Outbound at 10AM and then a predetermined route crafted by Ray Delany was undertaken. This marked and meticulously planned route took nearly thirty Bentley Motor cars spanning across the one hundred years of the company's history through scenic country roads. Towns passed included Lancefield and Heathcote before arriving at our destination, "Kilpara" in Nagambie in the Goulburn River. Approximately 60 people attended a self-catered picnic on the grounds of "Kilpara". The weather was very kind, from all reports and feedback thus received it was an excellent day of driving and socialising, an outing that all in attendance thoroughly enjoyed. “A special thanks to Sam Patten, our Chairman and his mother Patsy for hosting this event at their country home and to the team at Bentley Melbourne for providing two new Bentley Motor Cars for members to become familiar. A MY2020 Bentley Flying Spur in Meteor with Linen and a MY2020 Bentayga in Thunder with Beluga and Black Edition treatments were very well received and added to a splendid line up of fine Bentley Motor Cars.” - Troy Sartori Committee Member and Social Coordinator
