Motors&#8217;N&#8217;Mochas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>February 10, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An idle thought one day culminated in more than 220 cars &#8211; and even more spectators &#8211; turning up to enjoy a free show&#8217;n&#8217;shine in Kingaroy last Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was sitting at home whingeing that there was nothing to do with our cars in town,&#8221; Motors&#8217;N&#8217;Mochas Kingaroy founder Paul Zenovich told <strong>southburnett.com.au<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I decided to reach out to a few people who had cool cars, and they reached out to a few more people &#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first Motors&#8217;N&#8217;Mochas was held in mid-2022 and attracted 150 vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>The second outing on Sunday proved to be even bigger.<\/p>\n<p>It was held at the Kingaroy &amp; District Vintage Machinery Club grounds, near Kingaroy Airport.<\/p>\n<p>Paul said he had contacted a few car clubs and vehicles had rolled in from across the region, Dalby and Toowoomba.<\/p>\n<p>Next time, he&#8217;s hoping there&#8217;ll be vehicles coming in from the Sunshine Coast and even further.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s hoping to hold a Motors&#8217;N&#8217;Mochas every three months or so, although a date hasn&#8217;t been set for the next event yet.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not a competition and anything that&#8217;s interesting can come along &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re proud of it, you can bring it along and show it,&#8221; Paul said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And the best thing about it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Paul organised for local food vendors to come along to sell coffee and burgers, and there were raffles for fuel vouchers to help him cover costs.<\/p>\n<p>As well, a bucket was passed around for voluntary donations to support the Vintage Machinery club, but apart from that, everything else was free for both exhibitors and visitors!<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Photos: Supplied]<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_328748\"
