The pavilion will bring some of the best cars from New Zealand and Australia under one roof, giving car-mad fans a close look at elite builds and wild street machine reveals.

The partnership builds on Meguiar’s involvement with Meguiar’s MotorEx, Meguiar’s Great Uncover at Summernats and the Elite Show at Rockynats, extending the relationship across the Tasman.

Meguiar’s New Zealand Managing Director Darlene Smits said the company was proud to support the event’s New Zealand debut.

“Meguiar’s NZ proudly joins Aeroflow Summernats New Zealand as the sponsor of the first Meguiar’s MotorEx Elite Show Car & Auto Expo Pavilion,” Smits said.

“We’ve watched Summernats grow in size and stature in Australia and can’t wait to see this high-calibre event come to life here in New Zealand.”

The Meguiar’s team will be on site all weekend with product displays and live demonstrations, giving fans a first-hand look at its car care range and expert advice on achieving a show car finish.

Smits said the event would allow the Meguiar’s team to share its car care expertise with New Zealand’s automotive community.

“Our car culture is incredible. At Meguiar’s New Zealand, we know everyone in the car scene here is just as passionate as we are and obsessed with getting the best shine on their ride. We’ll be there all weekend with our people, products and a few surprises. See you there!”

Summernats Managing Director Andy Lopez said the partnership would help bring the experience fans love at the Australian elite showcases to New Zealand.

“The Meguiar’s MotorEx Elite Show Car & Auto Expo Pavilion will bring fans an awesome experience. The best builds at Summernats NZ are the centrepiece to what’s going to be a fantastic expo of auto brands and businesses from New Zealand and Australia. We’re really grateful to be able to extend our long standing Australian partnership with Meguiar’s into New Zealand,” Lopez said.
