Rally Sitges 2023. 65 Edition Internacional Vintage Car Rally Barcelona - SitgesThe full name of this vintage car rallye is 'El Rallye Internacional de Coches de Época Barcelona-Sitges'.  

Around 70 classic cars, all manufactured before 1928, 'race' the 45km winding and scenic stretch of the Garraf seaside corniche road from Barcelona to finish at the marina called Port de Sitges - Aiguadolç in the coastal resort of Sitges just south of Barcelona.

The oldest car in the Sitges Rally is a Darracq from 1905. The Barcelona city council owns its own vintage car nicknamed 'La Genoveva' which is a Renault 11HP from 1908 which also takes part in the Sitges Rally along with many other beautifully preserved and much loved vintage cars.
