A BIG thank-you from the MG 'M' Group

Thanks everyone who came along including those that came to see the stand. The stand got a mention in the local paper:

Bristol Evening Post

Usual journalistic errors - according to the article it seems the MG 'M' Group has merged with MMOC


I will be posting up some more pictures on my website and a full review will appear in Forward!

Ahh well at least it is complementary unlike the MG1600 article which is good for both clubs and the cars in general which is the important thing.

Looks like a good day was had by all. Did you get a listing of who was there and in what to show the turnout?

Turnout details

Yes, I have a spreadsheet with the entrants for the stand in 2004 and 2005.
I will be starting a list for 2006 soon. Now that I have discovered that we were the second biggest stand, I am going to aim to be the biggest next year.

A full show report will be appearing in Forward! in the Autumn

In the meantime, I have posted a few pictures here.

MOTOR FANS HAIL CLASSIC CAR SHOW A BIG SUCCESS

16:00 - 13 June 2005

The Evening Post-sponsored Classic Car Show once again proved a popular attraction with an impressive line-up of motoring history. Everything from the humble Austin Seven to a mighty Pontiac Trans Am muscle car was represented at the show on Clifton Down on Sunday.

One of the biggest club stands at the show was the MG Maestro Owners Club, which has a loyal following.

Club spokesman Matthew Semple said: "This year's line-up was the best we have ever achieved and to get four of the rare turbo-charged versions together at the same show is fantastic."

The Bristol and district branch of the Morris Minor Owners Club also had an impressive display, with almost every model, from saloon, convertibles and vans, on show.
