Rolls-Royce Technical Section
Next Meeting Saturday 6th September

The Derby Works Garage is hosting a special visit for RROCA (Vic) members on Saturday, 6 September 2025, from 10:00 to 12:00, replacing the originally scheduled Sunday technical session. This event offers a unique opportunity to explore one of Melbourne's leading workshops dedicated to the repair, restoration, and maintenance of pre-war motorcars, including cars prepared for local and international events.

Event details and significance: The visit will showcase The Derby Works' expertise in maintaining classic motorcars and their role in preparing vehicles for events across Australia and worldwide, highlighting the advantage of having these skills locally.

Visitor guidelines: Attendees are reminded that Derby Works is a professional workshop, not a tourist site, and must adhere to rules such as no smoking, no dogs, no unauthorized photos, and appropriate dress, including proper footwear. Limited refreshments will be available, and the event will proceed regardless of weather.

Logistics and community respect: The Derby Works is located in a residential area near a Melbourne Water reservoir, with parking suggested along the reservoir kerb to avoid inconveniencing neighbours. Visitors should exercise caution when driving in the neighbourhood.
