Stoneleigh International MG Show

[matthewsemple]

The MG M Group is going to be at the International MG show at Stoneleigh in Warwickshire. It is taking place on Sunday 15th February 2004 and kicks off the show season.

We will have several MG Maestros and Montegos on the stand and will be flying the flag for Austin Rover amongst the older (and newer) MGs.

If you are in the area or fancy a drive and you'd like to buy some graphics, back issues of Forward! renew your memebership or just chat about our cars - come along and see us.

Here some pictures of the club stand at last year's show:

Only saw your car on the stand. The show was a bit dissapointing in terms of parts for our cars.

Although the partner still managed to come away with a boot full of parts for the campervan. :rolleyes:

Yes this is true - my car was the only one that made it. Several people that we were hoping would display their cars either had car trouble or didn't arrive early enough to display.

Last year there were at least 5 MG Maestros and an MG Metro on display either on the MG M stand or the FWD register.

We were also told that we were not allowed to sell anything from the stand without paying as a trader. This charge is quite high and we would have risked not covering the cost. As a club, however, we were allowed to have a free display.

Fear not, the MG M Committee is working hard to ensure that we will have traders at MG Saloon day selling parts for our cars. We have already had several traders say they would like to come and trade.
