AUTO RETRO DU BASSIN

Auto Rétro du Bassin is an association under French law based in La Teste-de-Buch on the Bassin d'Arcachon. The club is dedicated to preserving and maintaining vehicles built before 1980, including both cars and trucks.

Members have access to a secure parking area with limited spaces, a collection of period technical magazines and parts catalogues, and a workshop with a lift for minor maintenance work. Experienced members share their knowledge about vehicle maintenance.

The association meets regularly to exchange advice, tell the story of their machines and simply enjoy time together among enthusiasts. It was founded from the wish to share authentic moments between owners of old vehicles and to keep the region's rolling heritage alive.
