Canadian MGF Reps Meet

Post by Rich in Vancouver » Sat Jun 11, 2011 5:07 pm

Yesterday evening the Canadian East and West Coast MGF Register Reps met for the first time in New Westminster British Columbia.
The East Coast Rep, John Stevenson of Newfoundland, was in town to pick up his MGF for the journey to MG2011 in Reno Nevada. He was met by the West Coast Rep, Rich McKie at a local Tim Horton's (coffee) watering hole. As it was we never made it into the restuarant, spending all of our time talking cars in the parking lot.

A sight not often seen. Newfoundland and British Columbia license plates together!

Well done guys, send the story to me with some good pictures please.

Andrew, although John and Rich are a rare breed (and some distance apart) they are not just two, there are now about 10 F's in Canada, soon they'll have more '95/96 than we do :D

There's an importer doing a great job, I hope we can keep track of these as they are sold on.

Very cool Rich. Maybe the next time John is in SW Ontario I can meet up with him since I understand that he has one here as well.

Apparently John has cars stashed all over the continent.
That helps keep the mileage down I suppose! :lol:
