The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive
Malta 2023
There are only a few days in a year which we really look forward to, and The Distinguished Gentleman’s Drive (DGD) is one of them.
It’s difficult to explain it but the atmosphere is just amazing! Nice people with cool classic cars, dressed dapper to raise money and awareness for men’s health.
This year was our 3rd year hosting it, since it started in 2021. Apart from hosting it we were also asked to produce the international video to promote the drive worldwide! So I would say that this year was a bit more special (Same goes for the Ride, DGR).
We raised over €2,300 with 95 registered drivers that almost all showed up on the day. We’ve met at the spacious Luxol Park & Ride and drove towards Smart City with a scenic route along thr Coast Road and St Paul’s bypass.
Joining the drive and a big surprise was a guy named Peppe who joined us from Sicily with his family in their 63’ Karmann Ghia! A car which he bought from a one previous owner, an Italian lady a few years ago! It is in great shape and still in its original condition including the paint work.
