The FVCC was formed in 1977 under the name "Facel Vega Owners Club" by a few enthusiasts, and some of the founder members are still with the club today.
The aims of the club are to share the fun of classic cars, with the underlying serious purpose of preserving an historically significant vehicle of which only a small number remain. A register of cars which continue to exist is also maintained and members are asked to report sightings of this endangered species to the club historian - there are still a few "missing" cars to be located.
A colour magazine, ‘Bollide’ (three per year) contains articles on the history of the cars, restoration and technical subjects, sources for spare parts which are becoming more numerous now that some re-manufacture is taking place, and other Facel related news. Some of these articles have now been reproduced as Features on the website.
