Boxing Day MG Social Meeting on Abingdon Market Place


The Market Place began filling up with MGs from around 10 and  Richard and Gill Martin were there as always with their MGB. The day was mild and mostly dry. Costa and Starbucks were open serving coffee.

The newest MG was a MG Cyberster, an all-electric, two-seater sports car, with styling influenced by cars such as the MGB with futuristic elements such as the scissor doors. It has been launched on the hundredth anniversary of the MG Marque. MG’s parent company is currently SAIC Motor (Shanghai Automobile Industry Corporation).

Ian Wright helped to ensure all the cars could were positioned so that anybody who needed to leave could leave without too much trouble.

At the point I counted there were 41 cars on the Market Place but others came and went during the morning. The total could have been nearer 50.

This owner has a MG T.

Behind Ian and his dog MG is Bridget the Midget, one of the MG Midgets.

He said there was a lovely turnout with lots of variety.
