So after spending so many very enjoyable times in my little Red MG's, it's finally reached the moment that I have a change of allegiances.

I have made some fantastic friends (not you moonmanike), met some lovely people (not you Steve1951) and spent many enjoyable hours talking to great (not you Rob) MG enthusiasts but alas it is time for me to move on.

So I'm saying a very found farewell to MGing.........




...........in Red cars..............

Meet Anna-May

I bought her from Summit garage today, just got to wait for her to be registered and taxed, but hoping to pick her up next Thursday (ish).

I have to say a huge thank you to John Newey of Summit garage and others who must remain nameless for helping to make this happen.

If anyone else is looking to buy an 85th, Summit have a second hand one with only 450 miles on the clock at a very tempting price. The guy who bought it changed his mind and wanted an LE500 in Red. Here's a photo....

Anyway, I have to now become a turn coat and desert the Red camp (she's got a Reddish stripe and seats if that counts) and join the White ranks............

I have got to say John that your new car looks absolutely stunning, looking forward to seeing it at MG Live. Weirdly enough, I was looking at a plum/mauve 85th today. I hope you have many enjoyable times together. What will you be changing your forum name to now and do they do aerial toppers in white??

Steve, it's an A. Please don't catch the train, no bar and you know what Fi is like if she goes more than an hour with out a wee dram......
