T Register News

The New T Register email Newsletter

The T Register has started a monthly email newsletter for MG Car Club members who own or who have an interest in T Types. It’s readable on smart phones and tablets as well as laptop and desktop computers.
You may have read our Chairman’s words in the latest issues of the T Register News about improving communication within the Register. Well, this newsletter is part of that improvement.
Email is a tried and tested means of communication and the majority of our members have an email address. The problem with providing a website or a Facebook Page is that you have deliberately to go to an Internet site to view information; with email, it arrives with all your other emails in a form (we hope) that is easy and quick to scan and digest.

There is a full description and information on how to get it on a separate post.

TB wins Meguiar’s Club Showcase

Congratulations all round to Alexander Louden from County Antrim who won the Meguiar’s Club Showcase competition at the NEC Classic Motor Show in November with his fabulous TB.
This is a showcase of the ‘best of the best’ coming from a large number of classic car clubs throughout the UK, making Alexander’s win even more special.
You can see more on his win including more photos on Meguiar’s website.

Stewart Penfound wins prestigious award

T Register Specials Registrar, Stewart Penfound’s book, ‘Harry Lester, his cars and The Monkey Stable’ has been voted book of the year by The Society of Automotive Historians, and he was presented with the prestigious Michael Sedgwick Award at their recent AGM and Autumn Seminar.
The book has had superb reviews (from the BRDC bulletin – ‘a truly excellent book… as an insight into racing as it was in the decade after World War 2 it cannot be recommended too highly’) Harry Lester was an expert tuner of the XPAG engine, and his and The Monkey Stable’s exploits with T Types and Harry’s Lester MGs are a significant slice of MG history.
You can read what Stewart says about how he got into writing the book on the book’s website. It does seem to be a common story of how one thing led to another – but with great results in his case.
So, if you are still wondering what to get for Christmas, look no further. See www.lester-mg.co.uk for details.
Our congratulations go out to him!
