Thank you to every one who attended Gildersome on Tuesday evening 17th May.

What does this algebra question add up to?

nb + td + y + zb + a + b + c + rv + f + zr + zt + ztt add frogeye, midgets, metro and a maestro

The answer a great turn out for the first Yorkshire Centre Pride of Ownership.

Cars from all four Yorkshire Centres natters where proudly put on show by their owners; 22 MG’s, an A35 van and a Smart Car Roadster.

The competition was excellent depending on whether your preference was for the old or modern type of MG, with models ranging form a 1935 NB Magnette to the very latest ZT 260 fitted with every possible extra. What did they both have in common? Both were out of warranty.

Most cars received votes, the final result being:

1st

1935 NB Magnette owned by Mr Terry Hartley of West Yorkshire, this car being possibly the very first one made.

2nd

1955 TD owned by Mr Andrew Murfin of South Yorkshire, who received the 2004 award for the greatest distance travelled in this car, which was also on show in the Marquee at Silverstone.

3rd

1957 ZB Magnette owned by Mr Keith Charlton of West Yorkshire, this car has recently been restored and is now collecting show prizes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, Keith Ainley’s Frogeye Sprite had a mechanical problem en-route, arriving after the judging but I believe this car would have been a very strong contender for a placement.

Although Alistair Naylor did not enter a car, he still won first prize in the raffle.

This is to be a future annual event at Gildersome so get the polish out for next year. I am sure these cars and owners will be defending their titles as winners of :-
