Founded in 1976, the Escort Car Club of New Zealand has been a Motorsport New Zealand affiliated car club for over 30 years. 

Enthusiasts for the marquee are encouraged to join, and the club is actively involved in running circuit sprints, motorkhanas and other clubsport (entry level) events. 

Club members participate in various levels of New Zealand motorsport – from competing in Targa to volunteering as officials for race meetings and rallies throughout New Zealand. 

For Escort enthusiasts who aren’t interested in speed events, the Club is invited to many car shows including the Concourse d’elegance held at Ellerslie Race course annually. 

Social and family membership is encouraged and we endeavour to organise fun cruises and mystery trials throughout the year. Club night is held once a month at our venue in Ellerslie and features guest speakers, information evenings and technical nights.  Check the upcoming events page for more details.  Prospective members welcome. 

This website went live on 7 July 2008, so is a work in progress.  Please check back for new articles on the history of the Escort, the incredible drivers who lauched them on the international rally scene and information on whats coming up around the Auckland area.
