Members'
reports from Le Mans Bob Grieves says "just about sorted out from
my return from Le Mans, I have attached a few photos. I met another French MGBGTV8
owner at St Saturnin and he allowed me to take details of his car for the register.
He was Hubert Meilhac and the number on the offside inner wing plate was 1771.
The car is a RHD model in blue and it has had a full refurburbishment and respray."
Both French registered MGBGTV8s are not on the V8 Register and the RV8 cannot
be checked as the registration plate is covered by the rally plaque. 150625
