Review for January 2012

Since you won’t be reading this until the 1st March at the earliest it will be a bit late to wish you a Happy New Year.  Maybe Happy Easter might be more appropriate!

January 2012, and the beginning of another MG year.  And what of our plans so far. Well, we will start with Cambridge MGOC’s Snowdrop Run, then our AGM, then MGB 50th Birth Run, then Bressingham Drive It Day, then Broadland’s 23rd Heritage Run, then MGOC’s Cornwall, then Classic Le Mans, then MGOC’s Isle Of White and then MGB’s 50th Birthday at Blenheim Palace.  Between these events we will hold our monthly meetings at the Plough and evening pub runs.  No doubt more events will be added following our AGM.

Our meeting at the Plough commenced with a meal at the bar.  After the meal Chris Humphreys gave talk accompanied by a Power Point presentation of the building of his NG kit car and the trials and tribulations of getting it passed the Single Vehicle Approval examiner.  By reading the small print and paying attention to detail it passed first time. The car was built from a collection of MGB donor parts from a 1973 model during 2001 and 2004.  The car is a regular sight at local MG events where it always draws considerable attention and has just served as a wedding car.  Visit our web site for further details of the build.

That’s me done until next month.  If you want to get the most from your MG why not come and join us.

Safe motoring
