What a great morning we had at Cars & Coffee Nathalia on Sunday!

After the rain cleared overnight, we were treated to beautiful winter sunshine and perfect conditions for a morning of cars, coffee, and great company.

A fantastic 57 vehicles rolled in throughout the morning, making for another excellent turnout. As always, the Nathalia Lions Club cooked up a storm with their famous egg and bacon sangas, keeping everyone well fed and happy.

A big thank you to everyone who brought along their vehicles, caught up with friends, and helped make the morning such a success. Events like these are only possible because of the support of our amazing community.

We look forward to seeing everyone again at the next Cars & Coffee Nathalia!

Cars & Coffee Nathalia lost a true supporter, regular attendee and good friend to many yesterday.

Jeff Stanyer had been part of our Cars & Coffee Nathalia family from the very beginning, rarely missing a morning over the past three years. Whether he arrived in his beloved Morris Minor or his ex-Army Land Rover, Jeff was always happy to chat with fellow enthusiasts and share a story with anyone who stopped by.

Yesterday just wasn't the same without him. His friendly smile, willingness to talk to everyone, and genuine love of classic vehicles made him a valued part of our community.

Jeff will be greatly missed, but he will always be remembered as one of the people who helped make Cars & Coffee Nathalia what it is today.

On behalf of everyone at Cars & Coffee Nathalia, we send our love, thoughts, and deepest condolences to the Morris Minor clan, Jess and Travis, and the entire Stanyer family during this difficult time.

Rest easy, Jeff. You will always have a place in our Cars & Coffee family.

Australia Day Award, We’re incredibly honoured

We are extremely proud (and still a bit blown away) to share that the Ford Zephyr & Zodiac Club of Victoria has been recognised with a “Nathalia Champion” Australia Day Award.

What started as a simple idea over a coffee has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined, bringing people together through our love of classic cars, supporting our local community, and helping put Nathalia on the map during the quieter months with events like Cars & Coffee.

This award belongs to everyone who comes along to Cars & Coffee Nathalia, park up and have a chat this is yours.

A huge thank you to the Nathalia community, local businesses, supporters, and everyone who has welcomed us with open arms from day one. We’re proud to be part of something that goes beyond cars and makes a real difference.
Here’s to old Fords, good mates, strong communities and many more miles together.
