The 47th AvD Oldtimer Grand Prix, attracted more than 53,000 spectators. Approximately 500 historic racing cars were present at the Nürburgring, showing their muscles on the tarmac with an immense roar of the well tuned engines. The weather conditions were constantly changing with a heavy shower during Friday’s qualifying sessions in the afternoon. The weather during the races on Saturday increasingly took a turn towards the sunny side, so adding some more spice to the competition because on the wet track in qualifying the lighter and more agile classic cars frequently had an advantage, while during racing under dry conditions the more powerful vehicles were able to leverage their strengths. Hence the spectators saw gripping races with many position battles.

In July 2019 one of the most celebratory events in the automotive industry took place. The “Citroën Century Celebration / Le Rassemblement du Siecle” was held from 19 – 21 July, in La Ferté-Vidame (Eure-et-Loir) in an area with natural beauty and full of history for Citroen. MotorMarques persisted to be present at this event and decided to make a fantastic 1,735 km trip from Lisbon, Portugal to La Ferté-Vidame, France in a Citroën 2cv from April 1990.
