The Motorellos in Lucerne provide spectacular demonstrations and daredevil rides on Indian Scouts.
Over the past five years, the event has become a permanent fixture in the calendar of vintage and classic car events in the German-speaking world. Thus, in addition to the classic vehicles, visitors can expect a wide range of parts, accessories and other things related to vintage and classic cars.
Private marketplace and classic car clubs
Various special shows and a large number of classic car clubs with their stands round off the offer. And last but not least, there will again be a private marketplace in 2019 for all those who would like to offer their classic car for sale on site to a wide audience.
Since the fair was first held, the focus has been primarily on vehicle dealers, restorers and repair stores. They account for around 70 percent of the exhibition offerings. Highlights include a comprehensive presentation of historic Swiss motorcycles,
Shows on 100 years of Bentley, the Saurer brand and 100 years of the Carrosserie Association.
Thrill with the Motorellos
Pure spectacle and pure thrills are promised by the original Motodrom from 1928, which is the oldest mobile steep wall in the world. It consists of 18 wall elements, has a diameter of 16 meters and weighs around 25 tons, and will be on display in Switzerland for the first time in decades. Spectacular demonstrations and daredevil rides on their Indian Scouts built between 1927 and 1930 will be offered by the Motorellos Donald Ganslmeier, Clemens Schöne and Peter Petersen.

On Saturday, May 25, 2019 from 4 pm, 46 selected vehicles will be auctioned.
