The club took the opportunity for a double-header weekend: The AGM at the National Kit Car Show, Malvern, and the 40th anniversary celebration at the National Metro and Mini Show, British Motor Museum, Gaydon.
This proved to be a success, especially for the members who drove down from Tyneside. As one of them said “having two different shows on consecutive days made the long journey worthwhile”.
As well as dozen members’ cars we were also joined by a Mini-Jem and the “Bangers and Cash: Restoring Classics” team – watch out for more news about the Bangers and Cash Midas later in the year.
With the club’s are located near the doors to the museum and backing on to the arena, we drew plenty of attention and members were kept busy all day.
As part of the club’s 40th anniversary celebration, our current treasurer, Colin Oberlin-Harris, presented the club’s founder and first club secretary, Colin Spencer, with one of our anniversary caps.
With so much to see around the show, not to mention in the museum and the collections halls, we hope that the club returns again next year.
