He said: “I feel proud the club have been able to raise that amount as I know every little bit counts and it helps to keep the air ambulances in the air and cars on the road.

“As the Wales - North and Borders Mercedes-Benz Owners Club region we will continue to raise donations in 2024.”

Debra Sima, Wales Air Ambulance’s community fundraiser said: “Thank you to everyone who took part.

“Mercedes On The Prom is always a successful event and the owners club members never fail to bring out a variety of different models.

“This year saw 115 vehicles take part and once again they raised a fantastic amount for our charity.

“The Wales Air Ambulance lifesaving charity needs to raise £11.2 million each year to keep our lifesaving helicopters in the air and our rapid response vehicles on the road, those of you who took part or supported the event are helping us to continue to save lives throughout Wales. Thank you!”
