AA route finder says it's 113 miles from Burnham and 2 hours 20 minutes. Show starts at 10am, should we aim to get there about 10.45am (miss the initial rush)? This would mean meeting at Sedgemoor Services for 8.15am and about 9.00am at Michaelwood Services. How does this sound to everyone or would you rather a slightly later start or earlier? Answers on a
postcard post and names please.
Thanks,
Nigel

This will be my first trip to England (stopping at Heathrow airport doesn't count) and my first big MG show.
So I want to be well prepared and have my to-buy-list up to date.
Anybody has a list of the traders being at the Show. I've heard that Brown&Gammons would be there. What about MikeSatur, MGF-Centre and Motobuild ?
Cheers,
Pascal

Hi Pascal,
be good to see you there!
MGF Centre I don't think have been there for a while, not sure about Mike S / Motobuild.
If in doubt, contact them to see / order what it is you want from them.
Cheers
Col

^Thanks for your reply Colin. I've already found this page, but there's no official listing of the traders being at the show.

Mike Satur was certainly there either last year or 3 years ago. Don't recall Motorbuild being there, but I might be wrong
Are you driving over?

Try E-Mailing them and asking. Stoneleigh normally is good for older MGs particularly the MGB.
The Websites will give you their prices so that you may order your parts for pick up at the show.

OK, starting to get closer to this now, so we need to start firming up times etc. As per my original post, AA route finder says it's 113 miles from Burnham and 2 hours 20 minutes. Show starts at 10am, so should we aim to get there about 10.45am (miss the initial rush)? This would mean meeting at Sedgemoor Services on the M5 for 8.15am and about 9.00am at Michaelwood Services. How does this sound to everyone or would you rather a slightly later start or earlier? Let me know please.
Thanks,
Nigel

We may have to have our youngest with us too
Which means we will be in the ZT and not the TF, more room for goodies
