The main beneficiary will be leading North-east cancer charity, CLAN, along with other local charities.
Rotarian Neil Booth, chairman of the organising committee, said: “It was great to be back with the rally after a two-year absence because of Covid restrictions and we were delighted to welcome such a large turnout of the public who supported the event so wonderfully.
“We are grateful to all exhibitors with their beautifully-presented vintage and classic cars and motor cycles which proved a great attraction and all our sponsors, stall holders and supporters who enabled us to raise such a magnificent sum of money for a very deserving charity.”
Mr Booth also paid tribute to the CLAN team who helped create a family friendly atmosphere with music, singing and dancing by Alba Acapella, Big Mountain, the Stardust Musical Theatre Group, Deeside Dance Centre, Coutts School of Highland Dancing, Banchory Strathspey and Reel Society and Banchory Pipe Band.
