THE Millport Classic Car Show returns to Millport this weekend - and to mark the occasion we're taking a look back at the 10 years of the event.
The event was first held in 2014, when classic car enthusiast Jimmy Newton came up with the concept to invite the vintage vehicles over to the island.
It is now one of the most eagerly anticipated events in Cumbrae's calendar.
Russell McPhee, who took the above photo, and shared it on the Millport Classic Car Show facebook page, said: "I found this photo of the first Millport Classic Car show 10 years ago when there were 16 cars from Greenock Classic Cars and we've been there every single year."
The show, born out of Jimmy Newton's love and enthusiasm for old cars, will celebrate its 10th anniversary when a fleet of magnificent vehicles rolls into the grounds of the Garrison House on Saturday, June 22 from 10am.
Having visited classic shows and events for most of his life, Jimmy decided a decade ago that his beautiful island home would make an ideal location for such an event and he decided to start his own.
That initial event attracted 18 cars - but since then it's gone from strength to strength, with more fabulous 'old timers' on show every year.
The event now also features a public vote for the first, second and third favourites from the cars on display.
The show is now so popular that Jimmy and his wife Eleanor, who still organise the festival, have had to cap entries at 150 cars.
Just as fascinating as the vehicles themselves are the stories all the owners are willing to share of how they restored their 'pride and joy' to immaculate condition - and of some of the bumps in the road they encountered along the restoration route.
Here are some pictures from previous shows over the years.
