Update on two popular V8 Events in 2026
Tony Smith is just back from visiting Clive Wheatley and reports the arrangements for the Classic Car Show that Clive and his team are going well and the event looks as if it will be a very enjoyable social event. Tony and Clive are looking forward to seeing MGV8 enthusiasts there so do book a ticket with Michelle at mgv8parts.

Tony Smith is also just back from several days working with Ian Lindley and Ken Clayton and detailed checks on the route programme, plans and maps for the V8 Tour 2026 in the Peak District. He reports that bookings have been very active but in the last week two reservations at the base hotel have become available. So anyone who would like to join this well planned tour should contact Ken Clayton promptly to secure a booking before they go.
