2015 Monte Carlo Classic Rally

It's back for 2015! Paisley will once again be one of the starting points for the Monte Carlo Classic Rally.

Paisley is getting set to shine in the international spotlight once again when the Monte Carlo Classic Rally returns to the town in the new year for the only UK start leg of the world-famous event.

The Rally is coming back to Paisley after a very successful debut in 2014 when tens of thousands came out to see the ‘grand depart’ as cars headed off to France.

Paisley sits alongside Barcelona, Copenhagen, Turin and Reims as host cities for the start legs, placing the town in illustrious company.

Classic cars from through the ages – including Porsches, Mini Coopers and even Linwood-built Hillman Imps - are expected to go over the ramp in front of the striking backdrop of Paisley Abbey.

Drivers leaving Paisley will then face a 2,600km-trek through the Channel Tunnel and over the Alps to the south of France.

Date: Wednesday 28 January 2015.

Time: Entertainment from 4pm, cars leave from 6.45pm.

Venue: Abbey Close and Bridge Street, Paisley.

I'm sending in my form to do the heritage run to Dumfries, in the next few days, in the Scimitar. Hopefully, I'll get a place!
