Another slightly unappetising day beckoned for Stoneleigh 2007. An early start for some of us meant travelling up in some damp weather but we managed to get all four of our show cars on the stand relatively unscathed. Their owners were quickly out with leathers and polish to bring them all back to gleaming condition again.

The F Register stand featured the first of this years TF 5th Anniversary displays with Paula Martin's 80th Anniversary special and Tim Field's Sunstorm to one side of the gazebo. On the other side was Steve White's 2005MY TF in bittersweet and special guest Darren Vaughan with his recently acquired Mark Two Supersports. This drew a lot of attention to the stand not least because it was back to back with the Mark One Supersports on the MG-Forum.org stand just behind us. It was certainly pleasing to see both cars together on display like this.

It was a busy morning with the crowds approaching four deep on occasions in front of the stand and throughout the halls people were elbowing for room. There was a large display of  MGs on the MGCC stand and many other clubs and forums also had displays this ear. The usual vast array of parts and accessories were on show for all to buy - of particular interest to F/TF folk were Brown & Gammons, Mike Satur, Rimmer Bros and MG Mania. MG Enthusiast magazine were there with this months cover star the Le Mans MG C Type and the MGOC team were on hand to answer your technical queries.

There were several F/TFs dotted around the hall with a nice 2004 Dover White TF115 for sale at just £7499 and a couple of others in the general sale section.

The best bit was the chance for an early season catch up with all our MGF acquaintances from around the country many of whom brought items along to show us. The results of which you may see in future copies of FasTForward magazine.

After an exhausting day it was time to tackle the rigours of the M40 in the rain all the way home - that certainly held a few challenges !
