In 2025, the Malaysia and Singapore Vintage Car Register (MSVCR) marks its 70th anniversary — a major milestone for one of the region’s longest-running vintage car clubs.
The MSVCR began in 1955, formed by a small group of enthusiasts who wanted to preserve and enjoy vintage motorcars. Among the early founding members was Lim Ah Fong, known for his 1923 Peugeot Quadrilette, which still exists in the family today. Over the years, the club has grown steadily, bringing together people with a shared interest in historic vehicles — from Austins and MGs to Jaguars and Rolls-Royces.
The club has always been about more than just cars. It’s about the friendships formed on long drives, the shared knowledge in maintaining older vehicles, and the appreciation for mechanical history. Today, the MSVCR continues to be a strong community of owners, restorers, and supporters across Malaysia and Singapore.
To celebrate the 70th anniversary, the club has planned a full year of events. These include a special commemorative drive tracing historic routes, a gala dinner to recognise long-serving members, and a limited-edition publication capturing highlights from the club’s history.
You don’t need to own a car to join the MSVCR — just an interest in vintage & classic motoring. Club rules allow vehicles 20 years and older to participate in events, so many modern classics now qualify.
Whether you’re an owner, a fan, or just curious, now’s the perfect time to get involved.
