Abingdon Works Car Show

ALSO taking place on Sunday 7th July 2013 the MG Car Club’s Abingdon Works Centre will be staging a revival of the original Abingdon Works Car Show.

In the past this was an annual show held in Abingdon to showcase all the various cars built in the town’s factory between 1930 and 1980.

For 2013 the show is making its welcome return, sponsored by Hartwell of Abingdon and Manor Garage of Wantage.

Everyone is welcome from the keen enthusiasts to families looking for a fun day out. The event, which is in aid of charity, is being jointly organised by the Rotary Club of Abingdon and supported by the MG Car Club to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, the Thames Valley Air ambulance and other charitable causes.

Starting at 10am at Rye Farm Meadow on the banks of the River Thames, there will be a variety of entertainment on offer including car displays, an arena display, gymkhana and a fun fair. There will also be food from The Throwing Buns and Secret Pizza Society as well as drinks from the Loose Cannon Brewery and The Brewery Tap.

Entry is free for all MG cars who pre-register. A registration form can be found here. Parking for the public or unregistered cars is available for only £5 per vehicle.
