wow, thats really clean. as hard as I work on my own car all i seem to be able to do is just about maintain its condition rather than improve it to something like this, and its not like i use my MG much...Oh well at least the 26 mpg I get out of My V6 is considerably better than this V8!
Or am i just a bit jealous

So far our NEC contacts tell us just 6 members have bought early bird tickets to the show, if you are thinking of coming I would urge you to buy them in advance as it's more expensive on the door. If you can get them before 4th October, it really helps the club too in terms of discounts for the charges we have to pay for things, so please if you are going to get tickets before the day, can you get them before the 4th to help us too?

Pre-buying ticket deadline to help the club ends 4th Oct Tomorrow Night
So that’s our line up for this year, we’ve four tremendous cars on the stand, two invaluable traders in the guise of technical bod Trikey and IPK de-liner bar none Rick-sta, as well as access to the build records, parts catalogue, RAVE workshop manual, and some free chocs if you’re quick
We’ll be selling our club merchandise and should have the new 2020 Club Calendar for sale too at a specially discounted price for the show. While you can pre book your tickets to the show on-line between now and 7th November, tomorrow is the last day for the club to earn valuable price reductions on show stand charges if you buy before midnight tomorrow night. They tell us that so far members of our club have bought 15 tickets which is excellent, if we could get one more bought before midnight tomorrow (Friday 4th), they tell us we would qualify for a further discount! So if you are planning on coming and were going to pre buy your ticket anyway before the November deadline, could we urge you to do it now to help the club? In any event, we hope that those coming will have a great time as this is the best show of its kind in the calendar year, and we are always proud and honoured to be invited and have such tremendous support from all you members who visit our stand each year. Cheers all. |
