About us

The Peugeot Club of Queensland Inc. (PCQ) was formed in April 1978 by an enthusiastic group of Peugeot owners. Such a gathering has enabled Peugeot owners and enthusiasts to compare notes, swap technical information and spare parts, socialize and really enjoy their common interest, Peugeots. The fostering of friendships is ongoing and a lot of fun.

Membership of the club also enables many Peugeot owners throughout Australia to keep in touch via magazines and web sites. We support a variety of club associations such as the Worm Drive Register and our sister clubs throughout Australia and overseas.

General Meetings are held on the second Thursday of the month (except January) at 8 pm at Shannons Club Rooms, Unit 3, 11 Ross St, Newstead, with a platter of nibbles shared at the conclusion.

Apart from club meetings with guest speakers relating to the motor industry, there are restaurant evenings, dyno nights, picnics in and around Brisbane, driving weekends away and museum tours.

Camping holiday adventures are usually called PUGTREKs and are held approximately every three years for those who are keen to travel Queensland and beyond. Previous Pugtreks have featured western areas of Queensland, including the Birdsville Track, Karumba, Lawn Hill National Park and many other interesting areas. The most recent trip was in September 2006 and visited places such as White Cliffs, Mutawingtje National Park, Broken Hill, Menindee and Mungo National Park.

Motor sport activities include Driving Skill tests, day and night navigation runs, cafe runs and driver education courses, and attendance at motor sporting events. An annual event is the State of Origin Fuel Economy Run where PCQ members from northern NSW and Qld compete in teams.

The National Peugeot Pageant was hosted by PCQ at Easter 2009 at Stanthorpe. This Pageant  combined many of the social and sporting events in one glorious weekend. Pageants are hosted by different states each year at Easter, with the 2006 Pageant held in Canberra, 2007 Pageant in Cowra and the 2008 Pageant in Leeton. In 2010 we will be gathering at Ulverston in Tasmania at Easter.

We also join in other national events, with several members participating in events such as L’Adventure Australia. Like the Redex, this event involves cars from the 50s to 70s in a round Australia trip. We are also invited to participate in many weekend events by other state Peugeot clubs.

Peugeotmania is the monthly magazine posted free to financial club members. It includes reports from office bearers, and lists social and sporting activities for the following months. Included are Editorials, Classifieds, recounts of personal Peugeot experiences, Club and World Rally results, technical information and comments and articles thought to be of interest. Letters, photos and articles are most welcome from members.

Peugeot Club Membership encourages Peugeot owners and drivers. However, if you are an interested and/or an enthusiast of the marque, then you are welcome too. The club’s members are scattered throughout the world. It doesn’t matter what age, model or condition your Peugeot is, you should find a place in our club.
