Welcome to the Jowett Car Club of New Zealand

The Jowett Car Club of New Zealand (Inc) was formed in 1962 to provide fellowship amongst owners of Jowett cars and those interested in the marque and to provide enjoyment in using their cars, interchange of information and the supply of spare parts.

If you own a Jowett, would like to own one, or are simply interested in the marque we hope you enjoy this site. Join us on Facebook and YouTube or download the membership application form by clicking the links below.
