MGFest - the car event with a difference ! Thanks |
|
Competitions for 2008 were held in memory of Dionne Walker
|
MGFest08 was brought to you by the MG Car Club
(MGF Register) and with every good show there are always a lot of people
to thank and I just hope I don't forget some of them (I usually do so
accept my apologies if you are missing!)
Without the sponsors, all the organisers before the event and volunteers on the day we could not have put this show on - so a BIG thanks to everyone that helped out at MGFest08. The main Sponsors for MGFest08 were the MGF Centre and Sterling Automotive and we owe a huge debt of thanks to them. Tim Morris (Chairman MGF Register)
|
MGFest08 was dedicated to the Memory of Brian Griffin, Chief Engineer for the MGF 1944 - 2008
