Adelaide Auto Expo 2016 gallery

The Adelaide Auto Expo managed to pull a few surprises this year - Dave Carey went along for a look.

The 2016 Adelaide Auto Expo held at the Adelaide Showgrounds over 25 and 26 November never fails to disappoint, with Chris Bitmead’s Street Machine of the Year-winning XBOSS XB Falcon taking centre stage.

Hot Rods parked with supercars, Aussie classics with Hiroshima screamers, but things went next-level when the 500-odd of Grant Zippel’s mates dropped in, using the Showgrounds as the starting point for November’s US-metal-only Zippel Cruise.

Indoor shows have come and gone in SA, but Geof Tartoosie and team have been developing Adelaide Auto Expo 10 years now and have banged out a roaringly successful show once again.
